Vegan Pregnancy Vitamins | B-12 🌱🤰 Vitamin B12 plays an important role in the development of the baby’s brain and nervous system. Deficiencies are rare but can include developmental delays, difficulty walking, and permanent damage to the nervous system. _ Vitamin B12 stored in your body may not be available for transportation through the placenta or in breast milk to your baby, but, B12 from diet or supplements is. That’s why it’s important to get B12 every day from food or supplements. _ Supplements: #Devavitamins is a great, affordable brand Fortified foods include: * Marmite yeast extract * Nutritional yeast * Breakfast cereals (check the label) * Plant milks (check the label) - Miso, shiitake mushrooms, tempeh, sourdough bread and umeboshi plums are not reliable sources. _ Before you are pregnant, you need 2.4 micrograms of vitamin B12 daily; once you are pregnant, the amount increases to 2.6 micrograms. A food or supplement containing at least 45 percent of the DV will provide enough to meet these needs. _ _ ~GET EDUCATED~ _ www.TheVeganRD.com and www.Veganhealth.org are both informative sites by Vegan Registered Dietitians. _ Purchase, “The Everything Vegan Pregnancy Book” by Reed Mangels for answers to your vegan pregnancy nutrition questions. _ Checkout out www.Plantbaseddoctors.org to find a vegan RD in your country, or ask your health care provider for a referral- most hospitals have RDs who provide outpatient counseling. _ _ 🤰Vegan Pre/Postnatal Fitness Program coming soon!
