Are you tired in the morning even after a good night’s sleep, lacking energy, having headaches, muscle pains, poor digestion, difficulty sleeping, and problems losing weight?

The body goes through a lot of changes during pregnancy and it goes on until after giving birth. This is because of the hormonal changes, stress and lactation process that the body has to go through even post pregnancy. Mums need all the nutrition and help they can get from the food they eat. Not only will this be passed on through the milk for Mums who choose to breastfeed but nutrition is also important for their own health as well. The late nights, the stress of having to take care of a new-born, and the hormonal changes can take a toll on a mum who has just given birth. 

The temperature is rising by the day. As we prepare for a long summer when a heatwave is expected, it is wise to start menu planning and incorporate some nice leafy greens and other ingredients that will help beat the heat. Summer favorites when it comes to food are lettuce, tomatoes, baby rockets, cooling cucumbers, carrots and potatoes (for salads) and don't forget to incorporate protein into it like chicken, tuna and other meats.
