Show notes
Pregnancy is often filled with anticipation, excitement, and a lot of questions. But biologically, it’s also a powerful window when a baby’s metabolism and long-term health begin to take shape.
On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I talk with biochemist and bestselling author Jessie Inchauspé about how nutrition during pregnancy can influence a baby’s development and long-term health. Her new book, 9 Months That Count Forever, takes a closer look at the science behind these connections.
Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts.
We discuss:
• Why pregnancy may be one of the most important windows for shaping lifelong health
• Why balancing blood sugar during pregnancy matters—and simple ways to reduce glucose spikes
• The nutrients that matter most during pregnancy, from choline and protein to omega-3s
• How to make healthier choices during pregnancy without added stress or confusion
This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about understanding what matters most and making small, consistent choices that support both you and your baby.
