Super Drinks For Pregnancy by Fiona Wilcock

DESCRIPTION:

Super Drinks for Pregnancy provides over 100 easy-to-follow recipes developed to meet the nutritional needs of pregnant and breastfeeding women. Moreover, because certain complaints during pregnancy often mean a woman finds eating solids difficult, and once her baby is born, time for eating becomes restricted, these quick-to-prepare liquid meals are the perfect solution to keep a woman nourished, energised and optimally healthy.

  • Dozens of easy-to-prepare recipes for delicious juices, smoothies, teas, tisanes, dessert drinks and soups
  • Recipes created to meet a pregnant woman's nutritional needs and those of her baby
  • A complete nutritional profile is offered for each recipe plus its benefits in pregnancy or while breastfeeding
  • Advice on seasonal choices and choosing and using the best equipment and the freshest, most nutrient-packed ingredients
  • Guidance on preparing and storing drinks and soups safely
  • Full-colour step-by-step preparation sequences and recipe photographs
  • Special features on 'super' ingredients and presentation and serving ideas
  • In-depth information on nutritional needs in pregnancy
