The New Breastfeeding Diet Plan is a must-read for any mother, although it would be better described by a title like A Guide to Nutrition during Reproduction. The information it provides is not only valuable during the breastfeeding phase, but also during pregnancy, after birth and beyond.

While the technical language used by authors Rountree and Block may be confusing as they explain how the body works and reacts to nutrients and minerals from different foods, it is well worth taking the time to analyze it and understand it.

The New Breastfeeding Diet Plan is the kind of book that you’ll want to keep close by for reference as it’s filled with helpful resources from where to get nutritious foods and organics to information on toxins found in breast milk and how to reduce them. It also includes a list of other books that focus on nutrition and recipes for families.

The authors’ expertise really shines through in every chapter of the book. Their voices are caring and understanding, making it a more pleasant read than some of the more cookie-cutter parenting books out there. And although it is dense with information, it is a relatively small book making for a quick read and a good go-to reference guide.

The bottom line? The New Breastfeeding Diet Plan is a great book that encompasses everything you need to know about nutrition for you and your baby. Pick up a copy here.
