Mommy, alam mo ba?
Ang health mo habang ikaw ay buntis ay maaring maka-apekto sa lifelong health ni baby?
Mas mababa ang chance na magkasakit si baby sa kanyang pagtanda kapag iniingatan ni mommy ang kaniyang diet habang buntis. Maaaring maiwasan ang mga sakit tulad ng Diabetes, Cardiovascular Diseases (sakit sa puso), Hypertension at Obesity. Ang pagkain ng tamang amount ng calories at ang sapat na dami ng pagkaing rich sa nutrients ay maaaring makatulong kay baby from birth hanggang sa kaniyang pagtanda.
