Eating Chocolate
I just read in EatSmart by Jean Carper that what a pregnant woman eats may effect the brain of her unborn child and effect the brain for life. In other words, certain foods can give your unborn child a higher intellectual ability. I was very apprehensive about reading what foods do this because I am such a junk food person and I already know how brainy my kids turned out but guess what??? The substance needed is choline which can be obtained by eating 2-3 eggs a day or (and get this) wheat germ, soybeans, PEANUT BUTTER, CHOCOLATE, and beef liver. Three out of six---not bad. I knew chocolate and peanut butter were food groups. Have a great day.... look at that sun!!!
