Foods to Eat:

• Every day, consume at least one pound of fresh animal foods, including poultry, organ meats, beef, lamb, goat, fish, or shellfish of all kind. Rotate animal foods - for example, eat a leg of lamb on Monday, salmon steak on Tuesday, roast chicken on Wednesday, beef stew on Thursday, stuffed fish heads on Friday, calve liver on Saturday, and a nice Sunday roast at the end of the week.

Just several generations ago, women who planned having babies were following wise dietary advice of their grandmothers. Over thousands of years, women had accumulated the healthiest and most practical approaches to properly feeding themselves and their unborn. Pregnant women of many traditional societies still follow a sophisticated set of rules (and taboos!) that shapes their everyday dietary choices. In fact, married couples are advised by their elders to start eating particular foods, and avoid others, many months before conceiving a baby.
