Exercise Recovery


	Pregnancy Nutrition During pregnancy, your diet choices affect both Baby and you, so it’s important to load your caloric intake with nutrients. Regular servings of nutrition-packed foods like Mountain High Yoghurt—an excellent source of calcium, protein, and probiotic cultures—help make every spoonful count. In addition to satisfying your growing appetite, Mountain High Yoghurt nourishes many ways. Each 8-oz. serving contains at least 30% of the adult recommended daily allowance of calcium. Pregnant and nursing women need even more calcium than the average adult. Calcium not only supports your and your baby’s bone health, it helps regulate maternal blood pressure. In fact, adequate calcium intake can reduce the incidence of hypertension by as much as 70%. Calcium also supports Baby’s bone mineralization and density. Multiple daily servings of milk products like yoghurt can help ensure you and Baby get enough of this essential nutrient. Remember that milk, cheese, broccoli, and greens are other good sources of calcium and eat up!

Only the Best Ingredients
During pregnancy and breastfeeding, what you don’t eat is just as important as what you do eat. Mountain High Yoghurt contains NO artificial sweeteners, flavors, colors, or starches, and NO preservatives. All our yoghurts are also rBST-free, which means they contain NO artificial growth hormones. Our yoghurts are sweetened with pure crystalline fructose, which your body metabolizes slowly. (Plain Mountain High Yoghurt is completely unsweetened.) Unlike the cane sugars, organic cane juices, and high fructose corn syrups in other brands, crystalline fructose won’t cause insulin spikes. That’s good news when your body is already going through so many changes.

The Benefits of Probiotics, the Convenience of Choice
Mountain High Yoghurt is also a good food for pregnant women with special dietary needs. Even if you’re lactose intolerant, you can eat Mountain High Yoghurt because each cup is loaded with billions of live, active, and probiotic cultures. The starter cultures (L bulgaricus and S. thermophilus) produce lactase, the enzyme that digests lactose. The probiotic cultures L. acidophilus, B. bifidus, and L. casei support your digestive health and can gently ease the irregularity that pregnancy can cause. And because these cultures break down the milk-proteins in yoghurt, you may find Mountain High Yoghurt can abate morning sickness.

The three probiotic cultures can help prevent another problem. Hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy can make you more susceptible to yeast infections. Because of the live, active, and probiotic cultures in Mountain High Yoghurt, multiple daily servings can reduce your risk of yeast infection by decreasing yeast growth.

Lastly, Mountain High Yoghurt can adjust to your changing needs. Our quart-size containers let you control portion size, whether you’re warding off morning sickness, feeding a craving, or increasing your caloric intake during breastfeeding. Single-serve cups allow busy moms and moms-to-be to get the nutrition they need wherever their day takes them. And when Baby’s ready to copy your good eating habits, Original Style Mountain High Yoghurt, which is made with whole milk, is a great way to introduce solids. We’re there for you, every step of the way.
