Healthy Eating for Most Mums-to-Be

According to experts, most young families and especially mums-to-be need a variety of nutrient-rich foods, also knows as ones that burst with vitamins and minerals. A serving of seafood is only 100 calories, but is packed with nutrients and omega 3- it's a great boost for baby brains, but also promoted a healthy adult heart.

So next time you're in for a meat-feast submarine sandwich, try to replace the meat with some crab sticks, tuna or salmon. Add something tasty to it, like:
  •  plain yogurt with slivered almonds, diced apples and dried cranberries
  • olive oil, capers, diced red onion and basil
  • goat cheese, diced celery and a splash of lemon juice
Try placing these in a wheat roll, or eat as a dip with crackers as a snack.

Here are some ideas for berbecue dishes for the cooler months.
  • shrimp, scallop, pepper & pineapple kebabs
  • Salmon or cod fillet grilled on a wood plank
  • Grilled mozzarella pizza with tomatoes and canned tuna
Research shows that around 80% of pregnant women do not eat the recommended amount of nutrients, which are as a matter of a fact absolutely vital for the health of both the mother and the baby. Fish and seafood are bursting with the essentials. 
  • Eat seafood mininum twice a week
  • Eat a range of fish, and half of fish for the week can be tuna
  • The fish you should avoid are sharks, king mackerel, tilefish and swordfish.
Fish and seafood contain vitamin D, iron, omega 3 and calcium. Majority of women who don't eat a good amount of fish and seafood are seriously missing out on the brain development of their babies. Here is a tasty recipe for a nutritious meal.
