In this episode, I have a detailed discussion with Taryn Firkser, a mama of 3, Holistic Nutritionist, Pregnancy Nutrition Specialist, and founder of Aubergine & Olive Holistic Nutrition. Together, we delve into the complexities surrounding prenatal supplements, from understanding the key nutrients to look for, such as folate instead of folic acid, to how to choose high-quality brands. We discuss the importance of obtaining nutrients from real, whole foods and discuss the potential pitfalls of relying too heavily on prenatal vitamins. Additionally, Taryn provides practical advice on dietary planning for those who choose not to take supplements and offers tips for specific dietary needs, including vegan and vegetarian diets. Special insights cover the challenges of nausea and the pros and cons of whole food based vitamins and gummy vitamins.
