When to take Ketogenic Diet:
Be aware of what you eat. Limit your intake of foods that are high in calories but low in nutrients, such as fatty or sugary ketfoods, and supplement your diet with ketfood containing folic acid. Being overweight can cause problems during pregnancy. Similarly, being underweight can affect your reproductive cycle, and therefore your chances of conception.
Check with the doctor to find out your ideal weight and once you have attained it, try to keep it stable. You should maintain your ideal weight even after conception with the most use of home remedies. Never take a ketogenic diet during your pregnancy, because you and your unborn baby will be deprived of nutrients that are essential for physical and mental development.
Ketogenic diet menu for beginners:
Eating well does not mean worrying about your calorie consumption. Rather, it means being aware of the quality and nutrients that are essential for a healthy pregnancy and as long as you make sure you have the recommended daily intake of these, your body should be able to adjust to the demands of pregnancy.
When preparing and cooking meals during your pregnant months, it is important that you eat a wide variety of ketfoods.
Most foods supply different nutrients in varying quantities. By eating lots of different types of healthy Ketogenic foods, you are more likely to get your nutritional needs in the right amounts.
Eating small meals frequently throughout the day rather than trying to cram your necessary dietary requirements into a few large meals- will help you to digest your ketfood more effectively and provide you with more consistent energy.
Below is a suggested menu of Keto Foods for one day. As it is a guide only, try to vary it with similar alternatives to suit your own tastes. A useful and enjoyable activity is to organize a “cooking bee” or “Ketogenic food” with other pregnant friends and neighbors.
BREAKFAST:
Egg and wholemeal bread provide B and E vitamins, fiber, and iron. Yogurt flavored with fruits provides calcium, vitamins C, and fiber. A glass of orange juice provides vitamin C and necessary fluids. Bananas contain potassium, which aids iron absorption. Milk contains protein and calcium.
LUNCH:
Broccoli and cheese soup contains folic acid, calcium, and protein. Potatoes are high in carbohydrates and fiber. Sardines provide calcium and vitamin D. Sticks of raw vegetables are filled with vitamins and minerals.
DINNER:
Chicken is full of protein. Wholegrain rice provides carbohydrates. Adding vegetables will give a nutritional balance to the meal. For dessert, fresh fruit provides fiber with natural sweetness. Milk, cheese, and crackers provide calcium, potassium.
Eat regularly:
Eating regularly means eating every 3-4 hours or so. It means taking three meals a day, but also snacks. This makes it possible to meet the needs of the mom without taking too large portions. You reduce the risk of nausea, vomiting, and heartburn. Eating regularly also allows you to have more energy and avoid fatigue in the middle of the afternoon!
Eat balanced Ketfood:
By eating a balanced plate, the pregnant woman makes sure she has enough energy for herself and her baby until the next meal. Mom will, therefore, be healthier and the baby will be able to develop optimally.

Ketfood Eat with pleasure:
Even if pregnancy sometimes comes with certain inconveniences, eating must remain a pleasure! So choose your meals according to your tastes and desires (sometimes strange) of the moment. Since what is consumed by the mom is also consumed by the baby, this is a good time to try new dishes.
