Why Make Grain-Free Bites?
Some individuals choose a grain-free diet as a way to reduce inflammation in the body and help with chronic digestive issues. For those with certain digestive disorders like inflammatory bowel disease and Crohn's Disease, some research suggests that eliminating grains eases symptoms. Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics found that the Specific Carbohydrate Diet, which excludes all grains, may help manage inflammatory bowel disease.
Other individuals with autoimmune diseases find eliminating grains, among other foods that can increase inflammation in the body beneficial in managing symptoms.
Here at Majka, we want to be a resource for all mamas. We know some moms avoid certain ingredients due to sensitivities, allergies, or by choice. Whatever your reason, we want to make sure you have recipes to support your breastfeeding journey. These Grain-Free No-Bake Lactation Bites do just that.
So Does This Mean You Have To Give Up Grains?
Absolutely not! If you don’t have particular health issues that require you to go grain-free, grains can be a nutritious part of your diet. Studies have found that whole grains can help improve heart health, digestion, cholesterol levels and reduced odds of type 2 diabetes. Certain grains like oats have also been used for centuries as a galactagogue and many moms swear by it.
Why Are These Bites Good For Lactation?
-
Protein: Protein is necessary for rebuilding tissues and muscles. This is especially important postpartum as your body is healing. Eating protein also helps keep you satisfied so you’re not ravenous an hour after eating.
-
Healthy Fats: Healthy fats are so important for new moms, especially when breastfeeding. Breast milk is made up of mostly fats, which provides the main source of energy for your baby. They’re also essential for the absorption of nutrients, energy storage, and hormone regulation. Including healthy fats at each meal and snack makes meals more satisfying.
-
Majka Lactation Protein Powder: This plant-based protein powder is expertly formulated to be a safe complete nutritional supplement for pregnant and lactating moms. It has a complete nutrition profile that can take the place of a postnatal but also provide more benefits than a typical postnatal.
