Better Babies

Welcome to the weekly round-up. This week we look at what you should know about flying during pregnancy - particularly early pregnancy. We look at all the science and most importantly what you can do to put yourself in the best possible position. We then look at the latest research linking Vitamin D intake during pregnancy and in older children with reduced incidence of ear, nose, throat and skin infection. We also look at its links to reducing asthma symptoms. We consider the science, plus how to know if you are getting enough. Next up is Hyperemesis Gravidarum: extreme sickness during pregnancy. We look at who is most at risk, how to tell if what you have is normal for pregnancy or extreme, what help you can and should get and finally some ways to reduce your risks. Lastly we look at one of our favourite tools for detoxing food from pesticides and herbicides. The reality is there is no ‘perfect solution’ so we take a balanced look at the pros and cons so you can decide if it is right for you and your family
