Did all that being vegan including my son since he was 7 yrs old hes now 21 and has so many health issues. Ate always healthy no outside process food didn't buy those nasty unhealthy foods. We had to change back to eating organic pastures eggs and grassfed meat. It made a difference in his health he always been very slim. Has constipation problems and bloating even with plant base. Been to many specialist don't know the course of the problems . All I know he can not eat diary . He gets hive from eating bread. So i make homemade pancakes and bread. I use grass fed butter. We eat beans soak it a day before add always Kombu. Trying to do the best i can to help him . He drinks kefir water probiotic which helps hes bloating and constipation. He cannot eat to much pasta because he gets bloated i mean we try everything.😢

I have eczema and I started doing research where it was said going on a plant based diet would help. I am currently pregnant and this is my 3rd pregnancy. Every pregnancy my eczema got worse. I got on KZbin and you popped up. Thank you so much for posting this. I was really wondering if you could do this while pregnant because you have to eat. I've been back n forth with becoming vegan. And now you will be here to help me stay positive about it. Thank you so much.

[@ChoosingMyHealth]

Congratulations Markita!!! I understand. I had eczema for many years. The type where your skin would bleed, behind your ears and legs. I know first hand how a plant based diet can radically change your skin. A plant based pregnancy is doable girl! Keep in mind because it’s such a crucial time for baby development, I advise you consult a plant-based nutritionist to help you meal plan and assure you’re staying on track so there are no gaps for you and baby. It’s crucial you get all your calories, vitamins and minerals. In general, my skin got better and better when I dropped the sugar, oil, dairy and meat, and went more plant heavy. So tons of veggies, lots of plant protein, fruit, loads of water…all of this helped tons. Praying you find your groove and that you heal! ❤️

clean up the diet by doing what she says n u will be preggo in no time. infertility is mucus and heavy toxicity on ur ovaries and uterus. once its gone it can receive a sperm. i went from being told I would never have kids unless IVF (that I never tried) to being on my 5th as of now. my last 4 children were plant based. i stopped eating meat in 2016

What prenatals did you use while pregnant?. I’m currently trying to find a good one as I’m 14 weeks & predominantly plantbase

[@ChoosingMyHealth]

Hey honey!! Congrats on the little one 💜. I used products from Mary Ruth's line. You can find the specific ones I used from my resources page under the vitamins & supplements section: choosingmyhealth.com/resources. They helped me soo much. Praying you have a beautiful journey 😊

[@lebohangsekhoetsane4338]

I need help I'm confused about these supplements at the clinic they give you iron and folic acid. Do I add the supplements?

[@ChoosingMyHealth]

Your doctor would be the one to advise best on your specific needs. You can also discuss with them about replacing their supplements with alternatives if you prefer.

[@lionsheart26]

You mentioned you take a liquid prenatal vitamin. May I ask specifically what one you use?

[@ChoosingMyHealth]

Hey honey! You can find the liquid prenatal & postnatal here- along with other things I use, and mentioned: choosingmyhealth.com/resources/ 💕

If I cover 200% on every vitamin on chronometer is it a deal breaker on a pregnancy vitamin as I would rather get nutrients from food I take b12 omega 3 vegan supplement and vitamin d3 vegan supplement and 2 nori sheets a day I feel sick constant and headache and tired

[@ChoosingMyHealth]

Sounds like you’re on the right track as the primary goal is to get your nutrition needs from food! ❤️ Still, always run it by your physician/midwife to make sure you’re A ok. Hope you feel better soon!
