My Vegan Pregnancy Diet

My Vegan Pregnancy Diet

Few things I had no time to cover: Protein- I got 100% of my amino acid requirements 95% of the time through eating fruits, veggies, tofu, beans and nuts and seeds daily. Exessive amount of protein is damaging to our health so we need to make sure that we are getting enough and our needs are very low compared to what we hear in the mass media. IMO excessive amount of protein and sodium and saturated fat can cause blood sugar issues, preclampsia, high blood sugar and a host of other pregnancy related problems. My blood sugar stayed in perfect range due to me watching my fat intake and avoiding processed stuff 95% of the time. I am not very strict about things but I do crave pure fresh foods and I honor my cravings. It takes a while for our bodies to effective digest plant foods and feel satisfied on plant meals but my advice is to stick with it and you will get there. My blood pressure remained the same as pre pregnancy I believe due to exercise and diet. We can prevent aches and pains through high in antioxidants diet which is also a diet that is anti inflammatory. Iodine - it is included in my prenatal vitamins and I sprinkle this organic pulse on my veggies. http://amzn.to/2n2BpM3 My fat sources - again fruits and veggies have some fat in them, I love nut milks, seeds and if going out the fats in the restaurant meals. IRON - spiraling, kale, collards, beans, cacao, seeds. blackstrap molasses. I used nutritional yeast here and there for added zinc and biotin and other nutrients. This is the one I love http://amzn.to/2n2uoem It has B12 added to it. I hope this is helpful to some of you. Sending you all a big ass HUG!
