Are you expecting? Eating a well-balanced, healthy diet, full of nourishing foods is important for you and your developing baby.
As a mum-to-be, you can make food choices that ensure that your baby gets the best start in life. The Hollestic app aims to help you achieve this by providing you with a collection of healthy, easy-to-cook recipes that you and your family will enjoy.
Choose from a selection of almost 100 breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack recipes that have each been tailored to provide you with the essential nutrients you and baby need during this time. For each recipe, we provide you with the nutritional information per serving and details about ingredients and cooking instructions.
Also included in the app are encouraging tips for each trimester, advice for good nutrition and physical activity during pregnancy, and a pregnancy tracker that allows you to track the progress of your baby’s growth week by week by comparing them to fruits of the same size. You will also find links to trusted online resources.
The information in this app is based on up to date, current scientific evidence and has been created by dietitians, obstetricians and researchers at the National Maternity Hospital, Holles Street, Dublin and the UCD Perinatal Research Centre, Dublin.
