Pregnancy Diet Expert: The Pregnancy Diet That Rewrites DNA! Why Pregnant Moms Are Being Lied To!

With your diet during pregnancy, you're programming your baby's DNA, and this is gonna have an impact on your baby's development and on their future risk of disease. And there's a lot of pregnant moms who are eating a diet that's not giving them the nutrients their baby needs. This is not the mom's fault. This is the fault of our food system. This is the fault of society, and nobody's telling moms about this. And I wanted to create this guide to help parents navigate that food system and see easy things they can do to help their baby's development. And I know this because, as a biochemist, when I became pregnant, I just went deep, deep, deep into the research, and there are some main things that I learned. For example, ninety percent of moms are not getting enough choline during pregnancy, and choline is super important. It forms your baby's brain in the womb. So this is the amount of eggs that I ate per week during the nine months of pregnancy, because this is the simplest way to give enough choline to our baby. And then your baby needs no fructose during pregnancy, so sugar from dessert, from chocolate, from muffins, from cupcakes, your baby needs none of this. Because if you have very high glucose levels during pregnancy, scientists have found that your baby's DNA will have epigenetic switches that are programming them towards having a higher vulnerability to develop diabetes, obesity, and psychiatric disorders. Next, this is basically the amount of protein that I needed to eat every single day in the third trimester of pregnancy.

A day?

Yeah, because the studies show low-protein diets lead to smaller babies and potentially this epigenetic programming of staying smaller throughout life. And it's findings like that that led me to create a plan and simple hacks for pregnant moms, and we can talk about them.

And then what does the research say about breastfeeding, exercise, caffeine? And also, do you recommend that mothers take certain supplements?

So this is what people need to know.
