In this solo episode of the UpLevel podcast, host Sonja Hannus shares her personal experiences, professional background, and practical advice on nutrition, exercise, and mental wellbeing throughout pregnancy. She begins by noting frequent illnesses in her family and the importance of supporting immunity. Hannus explains that her view on optimal nutrition differs from Finnish public health recommendations, drawing on her training at the Integrative Institution of Nutrition and over ten years of personal study. She stresses the value of pre‑conception nutrition, limiting alcohol and caffeine, and beginning a nutrient‑dense diet before pregnancy. The episode is organized by trimester: in the first trimester she discusses managing nausea, the critical role of folate (from leafy greens, nuts, eggs, dairy, meat), using smoothies for vitamins, and limiting caffeine to about one cup per day. She advises regular small meals, hydration with water and electrolyte‑rich drinks, and avoiding processed foods and added sugars. In the second trimester she emphasizes increasing fiber, maintaining hydration, monitoring iron/ferritin levels, and suggests supplements such as omega‑3, magnesium, vitamin D, C, and iron when needed. The third trimester focuses on adjusting portion sizes, eating more frequently, and continuing whole‑food, low‑inflammation choices. Throughout, she advocates listening to the body, choosing organic and locally sourced foods, and minimizing white sugar and refined oils. Hannus also provides exercise guidance: listening to bodily signals, avoiding direct abdominal exercises, favoring deep and transverse core work, prenatal‑specific workouts, and maintaining regular activity like walking, pilates, or light jogging if already accustomed. She highlights mental health practices—meditation, breathing, nature walks—to reduce stress, noting that stress harms pregnancy outcomes. The episode concludes with a promotion of her e‑book on hormonal health, offered at a discount with code UPLEVEL, and an invitation for listeners to engage via social media.
