The Most Important Nutrients for Mom and Baby
As a prenatal and postpartum chiropractor in Ashburn, we know that growing a baby is hard work! It is important that you ensure that you and baby both are getting all of the nutrients needed for a healthy and thriving development.
All throughout pregnancy, babies will steal the vitamins and minerals they need from you, whether you have them to spare or not.
It is so important to get these in your diet:
- Choline
- Vitamin A
- Vitamin K
- Folate
- Vitamin D
- Calcium
- Iron
- Magnesium
- DHA
- Zinc
In a perfect world, mom would obtain ALL of these nutrients and vitamins from a rich, whole food diet. However, even if mom is eating a very clean diet loaded with nutrients, she may still have some deficiencies.
With that being said, it is always best practice for mom to eat a healthy, whole food diet while also taking a great prenatal vitamin!
