Real Food for Pregnancy by Lily Nichols

Real Food for Pregnancy by Lily Nichols

Prenatal nutrition can be confusing. A lot of the advice you have been given about what to eat (or what not to eat) is well-meaning, but frankly, outdated or not evidenced-based. In Real Food for Pregnancy, you will get clear answers on what to eat and why, with research to back up every recommendation. Author and specialist in prenatal nutrition, Lily Nichols, RDN, CDE, has taken a long and hard look at the science and discovered a wide gap between current prenatal nutrition recommendations and what foods are required for optimal health in pregnancy and for your baby's development. There has never been a more comprehensive and well-referenced resource on prenatal nutrition. With Real Food for Pregnancy as your guide, you can be confident that your food and lifestyle choices support a smooth, healthy pregnancy.

Lily Nichols is an evidence-based prenatal nutritionist, Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist, Certified Diabetes Educator, researcher, and author. Her work is known for being research-focused, thorough, and sensible, since she draws on current scientific literature as well as the wisdom of traditional cultures. Her best-selling book, Real Food for Gestational Diabetes (which also includes an online course), lays out a groundbreaking nutrient-dense, low-carb approach to gestational diabetes management. Her work has influenced international dietary regulations as well as helping tens of thousands of women manage gestational diabetes (largely without the need for blood sugar-lowering medication). Lily is a sought-after consultant and speaker in the industry due to her clinical expertise and vast knowledge in prenatal nutrition.

Lily's second book, Real Food for Pregnancy, lays out the flaws in existing prenatal nutrition guidelines and presents the evidence--over 930 citations and counting--that a real food diet can improve both maternal and fetal health. Lily is also the founder of www.PilatesNutritionist.com, a famous site that covers a wide range of themes such as genuine food, mindful eating, and pregnant nutrition.
