Pregnancy guidance

Recommended

Boiled black turtle beans are highly recommended during pregnancy as an exceptional source of nutrients. They deliver substantial folate, dietary fiber, plant protein, and potassium that support neural tube closure and bowel regularity. Soak dry beans and boil them thoroughly until soft to break down natural lectins and oligosaccharides. Toss into brown rice bowls with fresh salsa and avocado.
