Your little sweetheart grows very fast, but still has a long way to go. Your baby will have about 26 billion cells upon birth, so imagine all the work your body has to do during 9 months.

This is where the importance of vitamin E comes in. It helps in forming cells and to protect the cell membranes crucial for your baby’s development. It also promotes healthy skin and prevents the appearance of stretch marks.

You can get vitamin E from the following:

1. Dark green leafy vegetables like spinach and broccoli.

2. Nuts and seeds like peanuts and sunflower seeds.

3. Vegetable oils like soybean, sunflower and corn oil.

4. Fortified juices, cereals and spreads.
