Healthy Vegan Pregnancy: 8 Nutrients to Get Enough Of

November 19, 2018 By Alina Petre, MSc. RD. Leave a Comment

Putting the word “healthy” in the same sentence as “vegan pregnancy” can sometimes cause quite a stir. Especially since the stories about babies born to vegan mothers which make the news are rarely positive ones. 

But as a registered dietitian, I can assure you that a vegan diet, when done right, can be absolutely appropriate for all life stages. Including pregnancy.

And several dietetics organizations agree. It’s just a matter of knowing what you’re doing (1, 2).

In my last article, I wrote about how pregnancy affects your calorie, protein, fat and carb needs. So if you’ve missed it, feel free to check it out. 

In this week’s post, I want to share a video that covers the 8 vitamins and minerals you should be most mindful of as a vegan pregnant mama-to-be. I’ll also show you how to get them through the foods you eat.

If you have any questions at all, feel free to leave them in the comments down below. I’ll do my best to provide to answer them a.s.a.p.

Also, if you’d like to learn more about a well-planned vegan pregnancy diet, encourage you to sign up to my FREE Vegan Pregnancy Diet email course. 

By the end of it, you’ll know exactly what to eat and which supplements to take to stay healthy and help your little one grow to best of his or her ability.
