Welcome to State of Mind podcast hosted by Nutritional therapist, Grace Kingswell.   Today I am discussing Fertility and pregnancy nutrition with Registered Nutritional Therapist, Cara Redpath. Before you begin listening I will say that if you’re planning on trying to conceive then this is a truly useful episode, and that if you’re pregnant then there’s a lot of good info in here about supplements to take during pregnancy, diet, lifestyle and so on. Slight trigger warning however, we discuss a few topics that might be sensitive to some so please bear that in mind as you go.     Cara and I discuss the concept of 12 months to make a baby, the importance of pre-conception care, foods to consume and foods to avoid if you’re planning to get pregnant (and also whist pregnant), breastfeeding, the importance of thyroid health, gut health and the vaginal microbiome, and we discuss some studies that have seen probiotics hugely reduce risk of childhood allergies and so much more.    There is SO much good info in this episode!    Find Cara online @cara_redpath_nutrition @gracekingswell
