The best prenatal care you can give yourself and your baby is to eat a whole food pregnancy diet.

Creating a safe and nourishing home for that little seedling to grow will help ensure its survival from germination to maturation.

This analogy is a great example of why preconception health is so important. It should be considered a component of preventative medicine.

Whether you're trying to get pregnant or you just want to regulate your menstrual cycle and/or minimize PMS, follow these dietary recommendations:

1. Eat blood-nourishing foods during menstruation week to replenish blood loss: clean meat, fish, eggs, black beans, lentils, kelp, beets, dark leafy greens, broccoli, cherries, red grapes, raspberries.

2. Increase vitamin C intake during menstruation week to help absorb iron: citrus, mangoes, cherries, potatoes, tomatoes, cantaloupe, strawberries, peas, and watercress.

3. Eat yin-nourishing foods during pre-ovulation week to support the yin phase of the menstrual cycle: clean meat, fish, shellfish, eggs, moderate intake of organic dairy products.

4. Eat foods rich in vitamin E during pre-ovulation week to nourish the developing follicle: nuts, seeds, whole grains, sweet potatoes, cold-pressed oils, leafy greens, and avocados.

5. Eat foods high in vitamin B during ovulation week to assist the release of your egg and implantation (if pregnancy is your goal): leafy greens, whole grains, eggs, and clean meat.

6. Eat foods rich in zinc during ovulation week to help with cell division and progesterone production: clean meat, fish, poultry, wheat germ, eggs, whole grains, and figs.

7. Eat cooked food the week before your period or possible pregnancy like soups to keep your uterus warm and progesterone levels high.

8. Avoid processed foods, refined sugar, coffee and alcohol the week before your period or possible pregnancy, especially if you have PMS symptoms.

9. Increase your water and fiber intake the week before your period to help the liver metabolize estrogen, which is one of the main causes of premenstrual symptoms like cramps, bloating, and moodiness.

10. If you're trying to get pregnant, try eating pineapple during the week after ovulation because it contains bromelain, which thickens the uterine lining to help egg implantation.

One of the services that I offer is Cleansing before conception.

Our concern for a growing baby often starts when we get pregnant, but given the toxic load most of us carry around, we should be thinking about detox as soon as we think about getting ready to conceive.

I am sure you have heard about cleansing from one place or another, maybe it was about cleansing your colon or detoxifying your liver. While it may seem like a new fad, cleansing has been around for thousands of years, used by the Japanese, Egyptians and Native Americans.
Cleansing has been used as a natural way to keep the body healthy and may be one of the most beneficial things to do before you get pregnant.

I am POSITIVE that cleansing really helped me have such a healthy pregnancy, birth and baby.

It’s believed that toxins in the body contribute to the unpleasant side effects of pregnancy: nausea, heartburn, constipation, mood swings, and low energy.

For more information about cleansing prior to conception fell free to send me a personal message or email.
