THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER<BR><BR>From the author of the no. 1 internationally bestselling Glucose Revolution, the must-have guide to the science of pregnancy nutrition<BR><BR>Most pregnant women are told: "Don't worry - eat whatever you normally eat. Your baby will get what he needs from you." But science tells a different story: your diet during pregnancy shapes your baby's brain, body, and health for life. And somehow, no one has told you the rules - until now.<BR><BR> When biochemist Jessie Inchauspé became pregnant, she sifted through hundreds of studies and uncovered striking research: choline, DHA, protein and glucose are four key nutrients that influence a baby's development in the womb; yet most women don't get nearly enough of the first three-and too much of the fourth. And the effects can last a lifetime.<BR><BR> In 9 Months That Count Forever, Jessie reveals science-based hacks to optimise these four nutrients, and help give your baby a stronger foundation for life. These principles can:<BR><BR>- Support your baby's brain development, cognitive growth, and emotional resilience<BR>- Lower the risk of asthma, allergies, and diabetes later in life<BR>- Influence your baby's body composition, organ function, and long-term metabolism<BR><BR> Complete with guidance on supplements, nausea, labour, breastfeeding, as well as meal plans and recipes, 9 Months That Count Forever also shares Jessie's deeply honest account of her own pregnancy journey, offering support and reassurance through these crucial months.<BR><BR> This landmark book reveals the extraordinary power mothers hold during pregnancy-and is an essential companion for every parent-to-be.
