51 Meal Recipes for the Pregnant Mother: Smart Nutrition and Proper Dieting Solutions for the Expecting Mom By Joe Correa CSN One of the most beautiful experiences in a woman's life is pregnancy. An opportunity to create another life is one of the greatest gifts. However, planning a pregnancy or being pregnant includes preparing for a healthier lifestyle. A proper diet during pregnancy is extremely important for the baby's development and growth. A perfect balance of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients is the key to proper nutrition before, during, and after pregnancy. Based on my personal research, I have created a book that includes a collection of recipes containing all important nutrients taken out of everyday foods that are crucial not only for pregnancy but to overall health. I want these recipes to serve as an idea of what a proper diet for a pregnant woman should look like. Protein, calcium, iron, and folic acid are some of the most important nutrients you should be consuming. My first and main focus is on proteins. They are the most important for organ development, especially heart and brain. Recipes with meat, beans, and eggs, are the best option for a light yet protein-packed meal. Calcium is in charge of bone and tooth health, while iron helps in blood production that supplies your baby with oxygen. Milk, Greek yogurt, cheese, and leafy greens are the best-known sources of these minerals. Folic acid is found in foods containing Vitamin B, that prevents anomalies in the brain and other organs. It can also be found in pasta, bread, and leafy green vegetables. I have combined these important nutrients into some amazing meal combinations that you will enjoy every single day of your pregnancy and for the rest of your life. Your body is in a state of constant change and that is completely normal. These changes vary from mood swings caused by hormonal imbalances to morning sickness, and the obvious physical changes that occur in your body. A proper diet is definitely the best thing you can do for yourself at this moment. Don't become the victim of your cravings. Most women fall into the trap of sugar cravings. This will cause even more hormonal imbalances. Instead of candy, choose a healthier option, such as a fruit, since this help you get the right vitamins you and your baby need. I hope this book will inspire you to choose the best ingredients for you and your loved one.

Notă biografică

For many years I have helped people to finance their homes or to lower their payments. I have worked for different banks, lenders, and a large investment advisory firm. I started as a college math professor at Miami-Dade Community College teaching all math subjects I was asked to teach at age 23, which was kind of awkward for many of my students as many of them were around my age or older but my ability to teach others and to master math helped me make difficult subjects easy to understand. That's why my classes became larger and larger. I was approached by Union Planters Bank which is now Regions Bank, one of the largest banks in the country, and worked for them as a Financial Sales Representative at one of their branches. This was an important learning stage for me that allowed me to see the value in helping others. On a daily basis, I was required to open the bank doors, open the bank vault, open personal and business bank accounts, complete home equity lines of credit and home equity loans, and many other tasks. I especially enjoyed closing home equity loans and wanted to learn more so I got my mortgage license and went to work for a mortgage company on a commission basis. Everybody was busy. There was so much work and so many banks eager to lend. A year later I started my own mortgage business and soon transitioned to a correspondent lender, which later became one of the top 100 in the state of Florida. I was able to help hundreds of people to buy a home, refinance to lower payments, and to take cash out to pay off debts or reinvest. When the economy slowed down and banks slowed down lending I decided to focus on helping investors by becoming an investment advisor. I got my series 67 license and started my own investment advisory business. Most investors had lost trust in the economy and did not want to reinvest so I decided to help others by educating them. I hope this book reaches as many people as possible and helps shape a new future for many that might feel stranded on their own without a solution.
