Reading food labels can help you make healthier choices during pregnancy.
Focus on the following:
- Look for Nutrient-Rich Ingredients: Aim for foods with high levels of folic acid, calcium, protein, and iron.
- Avoid Excess Sugar and Salt: Minimize processed foods with added sugars or excessive sodium.
- Check Serving Sizes: Ensure the serving size on the label matches how much you intend to eat to avoid overeating.
