From a Functional Nutrition perspective, pregnancy is a time to focus on protein, healthy fats, minerals, and blood-building nutrients. I love to encourage seasonal eating, cooling, water-rich foods in summer while still prioritizing warm, nourishing meals that support digestion and energy.
Some summer favorites:
🥒 Cucumber, avocado, and herb salad
🍒 Cherries with a handful of walnuts
🫐 Greek yogurt topped with blueberries and h**p seeds
🍑 Peaches with cottage cheese or ricotta
🥗 Grilled salmon over leafy greens, zucchini, and asparagus
🍉 Watermelon with mint and a pinch of mineral-rich sea salt
🥕 Roasted radishes, carrots, beets, and summer squash drizzled with olive oil
Eating with the seasons is one of the simplest ways to support your body during pregnancy—more nutrients, more flavor, and foods that naturally align with what your body needs this time of year. ✨
