Ever wondered why protein is so crucial during pregnancy and breastfeeding? Join us on The Ordinary Doula Podcast as we talk with Brittany Fox, a nutritional therapy practitioner and functional hormone specialist, who reveals the often-overlooked importance of protein intake for expecting and new mothers. Throughout her journey, motivated by her own postpartum struggles and her clients' needs, Fox discovered the transformative effects of adequate protein consumption on fetal development, maternal health, and physiological functions such as tissue growth, blood volume expansion, liver detoxification, and hormone function. She advocates for women to consume between 90 to 140 grams of protein daily, tailored to their unique circumstances like breastfeeding or high activity levels.
Moreover, we emphasize the broader nutritional requirements during pregnancy and breastfeeding, highlighting how a mother’s body often sacrifices its own health to nourish the baby. Fox discusses the nutritional guidance gaps in standard prenatal care and recommends valuable resources like "Real Food for Pregnancy" by Lily Nichols. Our conversation also delves into the importance of seeking personalized nutritional advice to prevent nutrient depletion and underscores the significance of making small, manageable changes for better overall well-being. Don’t miss Brittany Fox’s expert tips and practical advice for supporting both the baby’s growth and the mother’s healing process.
