Guest: Dr. Courtney Luecking, Extension Specialist for Maternal and Child Health
Season 6, Episode 10
The title for this episode might make you think we are planning ahead for Halloween on Talking FACS, but really we are chatting with Dr. Courtney Luecking about the essential nutrients needed for healthy development of baby brains during pregnancy. Fetal brain development is rapid throughout pregnancy and lays the foundation for a child’s growth and development. Understanding which nutrients support fetal brain development and health in pregnancy can help expectant parents make nutrition choices that have lasting positive impact for their child.
