Here's how The Simply Bar helps with common pregnancy ailments:
Nausea
Nausea is a normal and common side-effect of pregnancy.
“To help relieve this first trimester pregnancy symptom, eat small, frequent meals throughout the day. Choose foods that are low in fat and easy-to-digest.” – Mayo Clinic.
The Simply Bar is a nutritious snack that is very easy to digest. Keep one close when you need to snack.
Protein needs to be increased during pregnancy in order to develop new cells and support each stage of the baby’s growth. The Simply Bar is high in protein with > 16g per bar. Also, gestational diabetes can develop during pregnancy, making low glycemic foods an important part of helping to prevent blood sugar spikes. The Simply bar is low glycemic food choice.
The requirement for iron during pregnancy is twice the amount prior to pregnancy.
The Simply Bar is Iron Rich – it provides 20% of the daily recommended amount of iron. Eat it with a Vitamin C rich fruit or vegetable to further improve non-heme iron absorption.
The Simply Bar is also a great protein bar for women all around, not just for pregnancy.

During the first 4 months of my pregnancy, I was very sick (nauseau). Fortunately, I could eat The Simply Bar and was happy I was at least keeping down something, especially something with the protein I needed.
I'm an avid rock climber and former outdoor guide and very active midwife with celiac and blood sugar issues in a busy final year of residency. Pregnancy is such an important time in a woman's life to reflect about what she puts into her body and gets motivated to make positive changes. I love to recommend this bar to my clients!
