Looking for healthy ways to fuel up during your pregnancy? Mothering magazine has a great list of "power foods" to start working into your diet, thanks to a partnership with Whole Foods Market. For even more nutritional impact, consider choosing organic versions. Here's their top ten:
- Avocados
- Beans & legumes
- Berries
- Dark leafy greens
- Eggs
- Fatty fish (such as salmon, black cod, or sardines), or a fish-oil supplement
- Nuts
- Hormone- and antibiotic-free (or organic/grass-fed) lamb or beef
- Sweet potatoes
- Yogurt
Obviously there are tons of interesting recipes out there that will help you incorporate these nutritious foods into your prenatal diet. Try to find ways to bump up your intake of the "10 power foods" (and hopefully your morning sickness will cooperate!)
