We made the cookbook we wished existed when we were starting our own families.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph-3\"\u003eWe believe you shouldn't have to choose between a recipe that's “healthy” and one you're excited to cook. Pregnancy shouldn't require an entirely separate cuisine. And feeding a family shouldn't mean cooking three different dinners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph-4\"\u003eWe made \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eEating for Life\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e around that idea: understand what your body needs, cook really good food, and make it work for the life you're actually living.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph-5\"\u003eWe came to this project by different routes. Torie is an integrative nutritionist whose own struggle with infertility led her even deeper into the relationship between food and health, and ultimately to working with women navigating their own fertility journeys. Eric came through the kitchen door, working as a line cook and bread baker before an unexpected turn behind the camera launched a career photographing cookbooks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph-14\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"bold-text-4\"\u003eThen we both became parents.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph-6\"\u003eAs we cooked for ourselves and our growing families, we noticed that pregnancy nutrition is discussed in fragments. Your doctor talks about food safety. One book dives deep into nutrition and treats recipes as an afterthought. Another shares traditions without much scientific context and calls for a lot of hard-to-find ingredients. Social media jumbles it all together into an endless stream of conflicting advice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph-7\"\u003eIt was the early 2020s, and we still couldn't find a single resource that brought it all together in a practical, joyful, beautiful, and evidence-informed way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph-13\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"bold-text-5\"\u003eSo we decided to create it.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph-8\"\u003eTorie brings nutrition science, clinical experience, and relentless research. Eric brings a cook’s instincts and twenty years of experience contributing to cookbooks. Together we bring years of timeworn family-favorite recipes we were already cooking for the people we love. At first we thought we were making a pregnancy cookbook, but over five years of writing, cooking, testing, and raising our families, this project became something bigger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph-9\"\u003eThe result is \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eEating for Life\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e: 120 recipes, evidence-based nutrition guidance, and practical tools for feeding yourself and the people you love through pregnancy, postpartum, and well beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph-10\"\u003eWe’re grateful you’re here and hope you cook the heck out of this book.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph-12\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"bold-text-6\"\u003eTorie \u0026amp; Eric\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Baby Abode","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47866143834196,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/7173\/files\/Image74_8a23e227-7424-4de8-b765-bac8cf01690a.jpg?v=1792179602","url":"https:\/\/seasidegalleryandgoods.com\/products\/ba-eating-for-life-a-holistic-cookbook-for-pregnancy-and-a-thriving-family","provider":"Seaside Gallery and Goods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
