Here’s What Korean Women Eat When They’re Pregnant

Korean women love loading up on these delicious foods when pregnant to keep themselves strong fit and healthy all throughout their pregnancy.

Here's What Korean Women Eat When They're Pregnant
Mixed Grain Rice

Unlike white rice that’s high on the GI scale, mixed grain rice is lower in sugar and higher in fibre.

Plus, it provides for a lot of energy without all the calories for pregnant women who feel lethargic and need a little boost. 

Sweet Potatoes

Sweet potatoes are a great source of healthy carbs. They’re loaded with fibre and add a little sweetness on days you’re craving something sweet yet savoury.

Plus, they’re not difficult to prepare and you can make a variety of things out of them. From sweet potato mash to sweet potato fries!

Seaweed

High in iodine and fibre, seaweed helps pregnant women with breast milk production and can help with digestion too. 

Milk

This one is a no-brainer. Drinking plenty of milk is important for pregnant mothers because a fetus can sometimes tap on its mother’s bones for calcium needs and when pregnant women don’t get enough calcium in their own bones, they might develop complications later on.
