Lily Nichols is a registered dietician, nutritionist, and certified diabetes educator. She is the author of Real Food for Pregnancy and Real Food for Gestational Diabetes. After sharing about her journey thus far as a health professional, we talk about an evidence-based approach to nutrition, health guidelines, and how nutrition relates to pregnancy. We discuss the potential ability of various diets to provide the full spectrum of nutrients needed during a pregnancy. Is healthy whole wheat a necessary part of any diet? Should a person be eating five to six times a day? We discuss these questions and more in this episode!
