In this episode, we chat with Aliya Porter, a Registered Nutritionist and a mum of three who runs Porter Nutrition and Weaning Centre. Aliya is a mine of information about nutrition in pregnancy and how you can look after your own and consequently your baby’s health.

We cut through the confusion of advice and guidance online to find out exactly what supplements, nutrients and vitamins are important for pregnant women and what should be avoided.

We also talk about how to support body health and recovery through nutrition after giving birth.

We know you will hang on Aliya’s every word like we did!
