Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When considering postpartum recovery and optimal nutrition, it's important to keep a few things in mind. The first is that you've just spent nine months growing a human, and you're physically recovering from labor. It's also important to remember that lactation also places high demands on the body, and decreased micronutrient stores can heighten postpartum depression risk.An alarmingly growing body of new research has linked depression to inflammation. We also now better understand the role of the gut-brain connection (via the vagus nerve) in regulating mood, and a 2013 study published in the Asian Journal of Psychiatry found a strong correlation between inflammation, serotonin levels, and postpartum depression.Further, the research on the link between nutrient depletion during pregnancy and lactation and postpartum depression has shown that nutrient depletion can affect the production of key mood-regulating neurotransmitters, like serotonin, and that lower levels of folate, vitamin D, iron, selenium, zinc, fats, and fatty acids have all been associated with a higher risk of PPD.Clearly, proper postpartum nutrition is vital for both physical and mental health.

This book was released on 2021-01-21 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's no secret that the food we eat fuels our daily activities - an especially important point when those daily activities include caring for a newborn and breastfeeding.But for many new mamas, the desire to lose the baby weight may take precedence over nourishing their body with the right foods to support recovery, milk production, rest, and all the other tasks required to get through the day.Significantly reducing overall carbohydrate intake - the go-to weight loss strategy for many women - is not your best bet postpartum. Carbohydrates are necessary for new moms - not just for breast milk production, but also for mental health, hormone regulation and more.The good news it is possible to slowly shed a few pounds (if that's your goal!) while still eating enough calories to keep up with the physical and mental demands of caring for your little one. The key is to be patient, eat well-rounded meals, and give yourself time.Keep in mind that caloric intake and appropriate macronutrient ranges vary depending on your activity levels, body size, and more.Plus, if you have a health condition like diabetes, you may need to follow a different dietary pattern in order to optimize blood sugar control. Every woman's nutrition needs are different and depend on many factorsDara Godfrey, MS, RD, registered dietician for Reproductive Medicine Associates of New York, says hydration, especially if breastfeeding, is critical. She recommends up to 3 liters of water daily.However, hydration needs can vary so it's best to let thirst be your guide. A good way to gauge hydration is looking at the color of your urine. Pale yellow urine indicates proper hydration while dark-colored urine indicates that you may be dehydrated and need to up your water intakeFueling your body with the right amount of calories will help keep your energy and milk supply up. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a breastfeeding mother should consume approximately 2,300 to 2,500 calories per day compared to 1,800 to 2,000 calories for a non-breastfeeding woman.However, individual calorie needs are highly variable and depend on body size, age, activity level, and how much you're breastfeeding.If you're trying to lose weight while breastfeeding, the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics says a slow weight loss of 1 pound per week or 4 pounds per month is ideal.
