Nourishing Your Second Trimester: Iron & Protein [pregnancy] | ep. 36
After a brief hiatus, Bitesized is back! In the latest episode we dive into a focus on second trimester nutrients. We are covering iron and protein.
This episode is all about the essential nutrients, as we discuss the latest research on the iportance of iron and protein in the second trimester.
Starting with protein, we emphasize the importance of meeting protein requirements during pregnancy, and the recent research as well as recommendations.
We also discuss iron. Iron is a crucial nutrient that most women are deficient in, we discuss how to meet your needs if you consume a traditional diet as well as a plant-based diet. Plant-based people will struggle to meet iron requirements and are at risk of anemia.
For those who will need to supplement with iron, we discuss the various forms of iron and which are more absorbable and preferred for the body and which forms will cause unwanted side effects. We also discuss increasing iron absorption!
