What is the best fruit to eat when pregnant?
Answers:
Watermelon in my opinion would be the best, but fruit in general is always good.
Watermelon is perfect for keeping you hydrated as well as it being loaded with antioxidants like vitamin C and A. It also contains more lycopene then any other fruit. Lycopene reduces your chances of cancer and heart disease. The best thing though is that it is a fantastic souce of amino acid citrulline, which helps your body heal it's wounds, lower your blood pressure, and protect against stroke. Basically it's a great bodily defense for you and baby.
The way to best eat it though to get the benefits is by not storing it in your fridge as it's best eaten at room temperature since that increases the lycopene and beta-carotene levels.
Congratulations!
