(Newswire.net — December 22, 2017) Cheyenne, Wyoming — While eating healthy should be an everyday endeavor, during pregnancy and months of nursing, a balanced diet is essential. Eating the best set of foods to meet the body’s requirements for the task of carrying a child and breastfeeding can be the difference between perfect health and deficiency.
“You don’t need to follow any kind of special diet, as long as you’re eating healthily as your body makes breast milk just right for your baby each time he feeds,” assures BabyCentre.co.uk. “However, traces of what you eat and drink can get into breast milk so if your baby is sensitive to a particular food, it may affect him.”
Fish is always a good starting point, especially salmon which is virtually a super-food offering a ton of nutrients needed for new and nursing moms alike. Salmon and other fatty fish are jam packed with healthy fats known as Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), “which is an omega-3 fatty acid that is a primary structural component of the human brain, cerebral cortex, skin, and retina,” explains Wikipedia.
Milk and dairy derivatives are highly recommended for their protein, B vitamins and bone building properties. Renowned for its calcium rich composition, milk fortifies the body so breastfeeding doesn’t leave a nursing mom feeling weak.
Lean Beef provides protein and vitamin B-12 alongside a lot of iron. To safeguard against anemia, it helps to eat supplementary iron-rich foods such as leafy greens and offals such as liver, depending on your taste and customs.
Brown Rice is a great source of healthy carbohydrates which the body needs to create energy and fuel milk production. It’s as simple as that.
Last but not least, water. Staying hydrated is such a big deal for a nursing mom’s body. If at some point water is not at hand when thirsty then milk and juice can suffice. Be cautious, however, to avoid caffeinated beverages as they pass directly into the breast milk supply and may affect the suckling baby’s sleep cycle and disposition.
So eating right and on time creates a solid foundation for new and nursing moms to build upon. Being mindful of what one consumes is at the core of a healthy diet which naturally includes fruits and vegetables. And much like caffeinated beverages, alcohol also moves freely between a mother’s blood stream and her milk supply.
