Lily Nichols

Um, but I, I mean, I have looked into this and I have read through some studies and I, I actually see the opposite and I know studies can be tricky that way where depending on what you're looking for, you can kind of find what you're looking for.

Um, but I, I mean, I even, I don't know if you're familiar with Lily Nichols work.

So she, yeah, she wrote the cover for my book.

Hmm.

If you need a book for like nutrition throughout your pregnancy and like what is actually good and not good for you, because there's a lot of misconceptions and a lot of old school things that are being thrown out there.

Lily Nichols has a book.

Well, actually she has two.

The one that I had is her older one.

It was nutrition through pregnancy or something like that.

But she has a newer one and it's like fertility and pregnancy and food nutrition, but Lily Nichols is who you want.

And I saw Lily Nichols and then look up, she has the two books.

I think she has way more than two books, but those are two that are great to debunk.

As far as books I've read, I've read the gamut of them.

I love, my personal favorite is Real Food for Fertility by Lily Nichols and Lisa Hendrickson-Jack.

That one, I, I just love it because it really gets at that piece of what are the specific things that you should be adding in your diet for the proper hormone.

That's my own personal philosophy of like focusing on addition and really what you're doing.

You've got to have the proper human diet to build that human with.

Also, I would recommend Lily Nichols has a book.

It's called...

Real Food Pregnancy.

And hopefully the earlier the better.

If anybody needs a place to start, go read Lily Nichols' Real Food for Pregnancy.

That's like a gold standard book.

And kind of take it from there and see if you can listen to your own body.

This is going to be one of our best episodes ever.

I'd like to introduce to you Lily Nichols.

Lily Nichols is a registered dietitian and certified diabetes educator.

She's a researcher and internationally recognized expert in prenatal and women's health nutrition.

She is the best-selling author of Real Food for Pregnancy, Real Food for Gestational Diabetes, and the co-author of Real Food for Fertility.

I genuinely loved eating healthy.

And I was like a super fan of Dr. Lily Nichols.

She has this book called Real Food for Pregnancy.

And she talks all about like debunking, folic acid and instead eating fatty meats and slow-cooked beef and things like that.
