Vegan foods for Pregnancy

by Newlife on January 16th, 2008

Pregnant lady who is a vegetarian can still be a vegetarian while they are pregnant. Just to make sure that the pregnancy gets enough nutrition fact which the pregnancy is supposed to have. And all nutrition food can find in vegan food as well.
Since you are pregnant, make sure that you have:

An addition 300 calories per day,

10 – 14 grams of protein,

Vitamin 12 used to tissue synthesis,

Iron which is used to form baby’s blood and increase maternal blood volume,

Calcium/Vitamin D which the pregnancy should get at least 4 or more servings a day which the pregnancy can find in green leafy vegetable, tofu, soymilk and orange juice.

Zinc, which is used for growth and development. It can be found in peas, beans, brown rice.

Folate, normally even non pregnant lady still need it at least 400 microgram a day but 600 microgram for pregnancy. It can be found in Dark green leafy vegetable, whole grain and orange juice.

Pregnancy should make sure that they will get all these nutrition everyday for the benefits both for mom and the kid. It’s the wrong idea that pregnancy should quit of being a vegan as long as the pregnancy has enough nutrition facts which all of them can be found in vegan foods.

    I do agree with the statement relating to vegans food for pregnancy. In my opinion Pregnancy should make sure that they will get all these nutrition everyday for the benefits both for mom and the kid. Pregnat moms should consume rich diet food and should not worry about the world at all. She should only concentrate her baby.
