3 reasons to eat berries during pregnancy:
- Nutrient packed!! Strawberries contain vitamin C, folate, potassium, manganese, dietary fiber, and magnesium – all super important vitamins and minerals to support a healthy pregnancy.
- Digestion. Okay real talk – pregnancy can back a sister up. So all the fruit and fiber you can manage is key. This is huge motivation to eat all the berries!
- Sugar Cravings! For real. The sugar dragon is insane for me lately. I want all the sweets all the time. So berries can totally come in and help in those times of need!
