100 recipes to keep moms-to-be on the road to tasty, proper, prenatal nutrition
Pregnancy Cooking & Nutrition For Dummies helps moms-to-be
eat tasty meals while maintaining nutritional balance. Going beyond
most books on the shelf, you'll get not only 100 recipes and tips on
how to supercharge family favorites (by making them even more healthy
and nutritionally balanced) but also answers to such questions as:
what is healthy weight gain; what meals help to overcome morning
sickness; what are nutritionally sound snacks to satisfy cravings;
what foods should be avoided to control heartburn and gas; and how to
maintain nutritional balance with recommended amounts of the best
vitamin, mineral, and organic supplements.
From seafood to eggs to unpasteurized cheeses, the list of foods
pregnant women should avoid is not only long, but confusing.
Pregnancy Cooking & Nutrition For Dummies gives you the
lowdown on what to eat, what not to eat, and why. Additionally, it
discusses how those with special diets (e. g. vegetarians, those with
food allergies, etc.) can still follow good nutritional guidelines and
address their unique nutritional needs - as well as those of their
unborn child.
