Food habits during pregnancy
Here I present some general tips on how to be your diet during pregnancy:
More variety than quantity. The more variety of vegetables and fruits you consume, the more likely you are to cover the entire spectrum nutrition your baby needs. Seven servings of fruits and vegetables with five different colors usually cover all the daily nutritional needs.
Your line is not the most important. Is it possible to live without losing a pregnancy figure and not take months and months to get healthy? Absolutely, but this should not be your first target. Do not exercise that may endanger your health or the baby, or follow restrictive diets can cause you malnutrition.
Eat as natural as possible. In a world full of chemicals and processed foods, it is best that you offer to your baby and your body whole foods, organic, fresh and local.
Avoid drastic life changes. Find the best way to quit smoking and alcohol, but do not change your eating habits drastically vegetarian or macrobiotic diets, or will give up soon. Try to follow a progressive plan with plenty of nutrients, and you can handle nine months.
Kitchen with various techniques. Foods lose or profit depending on how they are cooked. Use different techniques to the same foods, sauces, soups, raw, boiled, fried, baked, fried, pressed, pickled, fermented ...
Prepare your desserts. Pregnancy is a time when many women prefer sweet foods. Avoid sugar overdose and conservatives who are in the food prepared and lean for fruit and homemade desserts.
Take care of the quality of the fat you eat. Fats are very important, but they should be of the best quality fats to prevent cholesterol and other consequences of a poor diet. We recommend eating 30 to 40 grams (6-8 teaspoons) of fat per day. Also be sure to avoid trans fats.
Preferred vegetable protein for animal feed, which is easier to digest. May your pulse amount is equal to or greater than that of meat you eat.
Searching alternative sources of calcium. Calcium is recommended during pregnancy, but prevents the cow milk rich in casein and lactose, which is the source of calcium healthier. Try to use other sources of this nutrient, such as almonds, sesame seeds, spinach, broccoli, kale or sardines.
Control your weight. Typically, a pregnant woman gains weight. That's healthy and you should not seek help or alarmed when it happens. You should expect your weight increase of the sig. form:
At the end of the first quarter, between half a kilo and two kilos
From 4 to 9 months, between one and two kilos each month
A woman of normal weight should gain between 11 and 16 kilos throughout pregnancy. If she has weight problems, this range will vary and pregnancy should be supervised by a physician.
What to eat in each group
Then I present the foods recommended for a woman who does not have health problems or weight. Special considerations must be taken into account for women who suffer from diabetes, hypertension or other condition.
