Healthy Diet Habit Tip of the Day 
or a Recipe of the Day

Is it okay to mix pregnancy and alcohol? Find out...

September 9th is Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders Day!

Is it okay to mix pregnancy and alcohol? Common sense would say no, but what about the latest research? Researchers seem divided on the issue. Some say that moderate drinking will be okay, and others say that drinking two glasses of wine a week can be harmful to your baby! That is not a lot of alcohol ladies!

My question and I believe yours too should be, "Is alcohol really that important to me that I would chance my babies’ health?"

If you are unable to stop drinking, please seek help from your doctor. Fetal Alcohol Syndrome lasts a lifetime, and poses a great threat to your baby.

Find out more about what research shows about mixing pregnancy and alcohol from Kerry's Healthy Diet Habits website!
