Whole Grains
Pregnant women should go for whole grains instead of refined products. They are much richer in plant compounds, vitamins, and fiber. There are many options to add to the diet, such as barley, wheat berries, brown rice, quinoa, or oats. These products are much healthier than white rice, pasta, or white bread. Several whole grains, especially quinoa and oats, contain a relatively high amount of protein. They also provide other important nutrients, such as magnesium, fiber, and B protein. [4]
