Book description
How to create a healthier, happier, smarter babyÂ-the breakthrough
pregnancy diet and lifestyle plan based on cutting-edge genetic science
Whether you're planning for pregnancy or are already pregnant, this
essential prenatal guide draws on the latest genetic research to give
you a complete program of specific nutrition and environmental
lifestyle changes that can help you have a better baby. The book is
based on the emerging science of epigenetics and shows how the
environment interacts with your genes, affecting which genes are
expressed or "turned on". It shows you the important steps
you can take to improve preconception nutrition and reduce toxins in
your home and body to consciously help your child be healthy, smart,
and strong.
- Leverages the latest epigenetics research to help you produce a
healthier, smarter, and happier baby with a lower risk of
allergies, asthma, and developmental issues
- Shares a specific prescriptive program based on four principles:
eating the right foods; taking the right supplements; detoxifying
before, during, and after pregnancy; and minimizing stress
- Shows how a woman's health and her environment during pregnancy
may have a much bigger impact on her child than was previously thought
- Includes the authors' compelling personal story of developing
the Better Baby Plan shared in the book as they had their own
better babies
