Primal Moms Look Good Naked: A Mother's Guide to a Beautiful Pregnant Body, (Paperback)

In a society where pregnant women laugh, cry, and commiserate about their unavoidable and unsightly pregnancy symptoms, it seems crazy to suggest that these symptoms are actually avoidable. In <i>Primal Moms Look Good Naked</i>, Peggy Emch challenges conventional pregnancy wisdom--that the fate of a pregnant woman and new mothers is ugly and undesirable--and explains how eating the foods we were designed to eat can reduce or even eliminate most of the embarrassing signs new mothers go to extremes to cover up. <p>Supported by scientific research, observational accounts of traditional peoples, and her own journey into vibrant health, Emch explains how a beautiful pregnant body is a reflection of the mother and baby's good health. Each chapter focuses on a different common pregnancy complaint, identifies causes, and details ways to prevent and repair them. Some of the topics include: <br>- Stretch marks <br>- Cellulite <br>- Varicose and spider veins <br>- Diastasis Recti <br>- Flabby belly <br>- Skin problems </p><p>Emch incorporates her years of experience and research into a practical plan for achieving and maintaining excellent physical health and, consequently, good looks throughout pregnancy. In <i>Primal Moms Look Good Naked</i>, Emch reveals<br>- How a Paleolithic diet can heal your skin tone, color, and texture <br>- How pregnancy cravings and trips to the ice cream aisle in the middle of the night are not normal symptoms of pregnancy <br>- How stretch marks and cellulite are signs of dietary insufficiencies <br>- How the junk we eat and the healthy food we don't affects not only our bodies but also the bodies of our babies <br>- How just a little bit of weight-bearing exercise each week can transform our aging bodies into beautiful, youthful ones </p><p><i>Primal Moms Look Good Naked</i> is a complete guide for women seeking a healthy pregnancy and baby. It includes a full nutritional guide, recipes, and an exercise program suitable for women of all athletic abilities.</p>
