Information about mother and baby food

Information about mother and baby food As we can see fruit and vegetables are extremely good for us! The Department of Health state that these benefits stem, not only from the individual components, but also from the interactions between these components.
Dietary supplements containing isolated vitamins or minerals do not appear to have the same beneficial effects as fruit and vegetables themselves. Indeed, supplements may even cause more harm than good. Therefore, studies appear to suggest that eating fruit and vegetables is much more beneficial.

Obviously, pregnancy and lactation place major demands on the body. To meet these demands the body needs good nutrition to stay energetic and to enable mother and baby to be as healthy as possible. One way we can do this is by eating a balanced diet, including plenty of fruit and vegetables.
