Menu for nutrition during pregnancy

The formation and development of the fetus depends on the quality of the food that the mother uses. After all, during the entire stay in the mother's tummy, the child's muscles, bones, teeth, brain, nervous system and so on are formed. This is very important for the continued existence of the child, so during pregnancy, it is necessary to comply with the diet and follow the rules listed below:

• do not use allergic products;
• Do not introduce new foods and drinks into the diet;
• Avoid foods that contain dyes and preservatives;
• give up exotic cuisine;
• Do not eat foods with a pungent smell and taste;
• do not eat thermally unprocessed products.

Also in this difficult period for the body it is better to eat more often, but less. This - a fractional food, with which during pregnancy you can control weight gain and not overload the body.

A very important point in pregnancy is a separate diet . Using the incompatible products in the diet, the body is difficult to cope with this, because the functioning of the endocrine glands is disrupted. As a result, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea may occur, which greatly damages the body of a woman.

Dietary nutrition in pregnancy

Nutritionists recommend during pregnancy to consume the following foods daily:

• 150-200 grams of rabbit, turkey, lamb or beef;
• one boiled egg;
• half a liter of milk, kefir, ryazhenka or drinking yogurt with lactobacilli;

Pregnancy and sports nutrition

Some believe that if a woman is pregnant, then she should lie all the time and do nothing. But this is a wrong opinion, because small loads during pregnancy help the body to prepare for the upcoming birth and maintain the body of a woman in normal form.
