Isn’t it ironic? One of my fave rockers of all time is preggers. Alanis Morissette is expecting a little one. Morissette and rapper Mario “Souleye” Treadwell, are expecting their first child. Bring out the storks, diaper genies and pin the pamper on the baby games. Because I focus on food, I thought it fitting to suggest the top recommended foods when pregnant. Now I’m not a doctor, but I’m pretty darn good at reading articles on health;-) Below are the top foods for those 9 months:
1. Raw Spinach
2. Oatmeal
3. Mangoes
4. Yogurt
5. Lean Chicken
6. Beans (Packed with fiber and protein)
7. Nuts
8. Whole Grains
9. Apples
10. Sweet Potatoes (Much better than plain, white potatoes)
Of course, they are many, many others but these are just a few that I found to be the consensus for the best foods during pregnancy. Congrats to my Morissette and Souleye!
