Listen Later

As a new mother, we want to give our baby the best nutrition and care. It is of our highest priority, and feeling empowered with nutritional information and support is so crucial to helping mom’s feel confident during the postpartum phase. In this follow up episode with two dietitians Whitney and Alex from Plant Based Juniors, we sit down to discuss postpartum care, optimal nutrition for mothers, and a dive into starting baby on solid foods. 

I loved this conversation about the messy yet beautiful journey of the postpartum experience, and value all the information and expertise Whitney and Alex share. Both mothers to predominantly plant-based children themselves, Plant Based Juniors was created because they saw a need for easy-to-access information on evidence-based nutrition for pregnancy and kids. They’ve since helped families all around the world feel confident and empowered in nourishing their families with plants as the primary focus.

In this episode we cover tips for successful breastfeeding, what the science says about raising children plant-based, baby led weaning, and much much more! I hope you enjoy today’s episode.
