For Moms and Dads, there is this concept of The First 1,000 Days. Do you know about this? It’s the time between conception and two years of age.
Why is this time so important? Because the brain goes through the most development than at any other time during life.
That makes nutrition vitally important. For both Mom AND the Baby. It’s Mother’s nutrition while baby is in the womb that determines the baby’s health and development. It’s Mother’s breast milk during infancy that continues the nutrition for the child.
So, what makes for the best nutrition?
Listen to our interview with award-winning registered dietician Lauren Manaker.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has identified a list of 14 nutrients that are vital for prenatal and infant growth. They are: choline, copper, folate, iodine, iron, lutein, magnesium, omega-3 fatty acids, protein, vitamin A, vitamins B, vitamine D, zeaxanthin, and zinc.
