With the increase in calorie and nutrient requirements during pregnancy, it is important to develop healthy eating habits which include eating a minimum of 2 servings of fruits. After all, fruits are an excellent source of folic acid and Vitamin C, the two nutrients whose requirements increase significantly during pregnancy. Interestingly, child development experts in Canada have pointed out that women who eat fruits during their pregnancy are more likely to give birth to smarter children compared to those who eat very little fruit or no fruits at all.
