Nutrition for Pregnancy (Virtual)
$50.00
Learn which foods are the best fuel for you and your growing baby! Nutrient–rich diets during pregnancy are shown to have many benefits, including: improved fetal health, a decrease in pregnancy complications and a reduction in incidence of postpartum depression.
This course is ideal for women who are pregnant and for women who plan to become pregnant in the next year. We’ll share the best nutrient-dense, whole foods for you to incorporate into your diet, as well as which foods to avoid and why. You’ll learn about macronutrients and micronutrients, the importance of each, how much you need, and which foods contain them. We’ll also discuss when to consider supplements, how to avoid toxins in your environment, and when buying “organic” matters.
This course is taught live and will be interactive – we encourage discussion and questions throughout!
