Protein powder?

Question

Major food aversions to all meat. How are you guys getting your protein in? Is it safe to have protein powder every day during pregnancy?

Answer

I'm vegan so I get everything plant based. Just check what plants have proteins in them and just have more of those, for example lentils, beans, chickpeas, potatoes, spinach. I'd prefer eating more of this than going for a protein powder. Especially when pregnant.

Answer

I have always used protein powders after the gym or when I don't have time to eat something, and I'll continue to use them during pregnancy. The Vega brand is amazinggg. It's vegan and the ingredients are really clean. They are also the best tasting ones I've ever had.

I have this every morning with some almond butter on toast. It's the only thing I can keep down.
