|-
| 00:01
| Welcome to the '''Spoken Tutorial''' on pre-pregnancy nutrition.

|-
| 00:05
| In this tutorial, we will learn about -Nutritional requirements during reproductive age and pre-pregnancy period.

|-
| 00:14
| Let us first begin with '''Protein'''

|-
| 00:17
| '''Protein''' is required for growth and maintenance of muscle tissue

|-
|00:22
| It aids in cell repair and bone development as well as for joints,

|-
|00:27
|It helps in improving immunity and maintaining a healthy liver,

And, also provides energy

|-
|00:34
|'''Protein''' forms chemicals which helps in - digestion,

break down of toxins in the body

|-
|00:41
| Maintaining blood sugar and carrying signal to and from the brain

|-
| 00:47
|Deficiency of '''Protein''' leads to - diminished growth of fetus for its age,

|-
|00:52
| Poor height, memory and motor skills in the baby, along with high risk of infection

|-
| 01:00
|
In adults, it leads to - Wrinkling of skin,

Hair fall,

|-
|01:05
| Tiredness and weakness,

|-
|01:08
| Frequent infections and Muscle loss

|-
| 01:11
| Another '''Protein''' called '''Keratin''' is an important part of - hair, nails and skin

|-
| 01:18
| Interestingly, The '''Protein''' is made up of different substances called '''Amino acids '''

|-
|01:24
| There are in total 22 '''Amino acids '''

Out of which 9 '''Amino acids '''have to be taken from the diet

|-
| 01:33
| Let us now look at the two types of '''Protein''' which are - The Complete '''Protein''' and

The Incomplete '''Protein'''

|-
| 01:41
| All 9 '''Amino acids''' mentioned earlier are present in animal '''Proteins'''.

|-
|01:46
| That is why animal '''Proteins''' are called complete '''Proteins'''.

|-
| 01:51
| On the other hand, In plant based '''Proteins''' -

some of these 9 necessary '''Amino acids''' are in lesser amounts

|-
|02:00
|For example, cereals are low in '''Lysine''' while pulses are low in '''Methionine'''

|-
| 02:07
| It is therefore important to consume different plant '''Proteins''' together in combinations

|-
|02:13
| For example, Grains and pulses should be consumed in a combination as they both will provide enough quantities of necessary '''Amino acids'''

|-
| 02:23
| Now we will learn about another important nutrient - Fat

|-
|02:28
| Good fats from foods are important for good health

|-
| 02:32
| There are some fats that cannot be produced by the body, Like - '''Omega-3 fatty acids '''

Hence they should be taken from the diet

|-
| 02:40
| These fats maintain heart health.

|-
|02:42
| Reduce inflammation in the body

And can help to improve the chances of getting pregnant

|-
|
02:48
|They also reduce the risk of premature birth of the baby

And increase intelligence in the baby

|-
| 02:56
| After learning about '''Protein''' and fat, we will now learn about '''vitamin-A'''

|-
| 03:01
| '''Vitamin-A''' helps to maintain healthy eyes ,

It regulates cell growth,

|-
|03:07
| increases the chances of pregnancy and

Improves immunity during pre-pregnancy period

|-
| 03:14
| Like '''Vitamin A''', the entire '''Vitamin B-complex''' plays a crucial role in- Strength and health of women in all stages of life.

|-
| 03:24
| Among all the '''B-Vitamins''', we will first look at '''Vitamin B-6'''- '''pyridoxine '''

|-
| 03:31
| '''Vitamin B6- Pyridoxine''' is required for functioning of the nervous system,

Thereby improving the brain development

|-
| 03:39
| Also, it may provide relief from pregnancy related nausea.

|-
| 03:44
| Yet another nutrient is,''' Vitamin B12''' which along with '''folate''' & '''choline '''helps to prevent -

'''Anemia''' and '''Neural tube defects'''

|-
|03:54
|'''Neural tube''' defects are birth defects that - affect the spine and central nervous system of the baby, which are formed during the first month of pregnancy

|-
| 04:04
| Note that, a '''neural tube''' is a part of the foetus that develops into the brain and spinal cord.

|-
| 04:11
| Hence, it is important to have enough

'''Folate''', '''Vitamin-B12''' and '''Choline''' in the body before getting pregnant.

|-
| 04:20
| Deficiency of '''vitamin B-12''' also leads to '''Anemia''', infertility and miscarriage.

|-
| 04:27
| Now, we will learn about another important nutrient -''' Folate'''

|-
| 04:31
| '''Folate '''which is also known as '''Vitamin-B9''', helps the body to make healthy new cells.
|-
|04:38
|These cells carry '''oxygen''' from the lungs to all parts of the body.

|-
| 04:43
| Deficiency of '''folate '''in pregnant mothers leads to '''Anemia''' and defects of the brain and spine called '''Neural Tube Defects'''

|-
| 04:52
| Note that: '''Neural Tube Defects '''has been explained earlier in the same tutorial.

|-
|04:58
| We will now learn about the role of Iron

Iron is required for formation of '''Hemoglobin''' in the blood and for fetal growth.

|-
| 05:07
| Low levels of '''hemoglobin''' in pregnancy can lead to - High blood pressure during pregnancy

|-
|05:13
|Preterm delivery

|-
|05:15
| Low birth weight baby and Miscarriages

|-
| 05:18
| Apart from this,
'''Hemoglobin '''helps to transport '''oxygen''' to other tissues and cells

|-
|05:25
|Low levels of '''Hemoglobin''' or iron leads to Anemia.

|-
| 05:30
| Moreover, Iron may be low in women due to - Monthly menstruation,

|-
|05:36
| Worm infestation

|-
|05:38
| Diet low in Iron and Poor absorption due to '''Phytic''' '''acid''' and '''Oxalates''' in the food

|-
| 05:45
| In order to decrease, '''Phytic acid''' and '''Oxalates''' and to increase absorption of nutrients -

|-
|05:52
|Use pre-cooking methods like - Soaking, Sprouting, Roasting and Fermentation

|-
| 06:00
| Signs of Iron deficiency '''Anemia''' are -

Tiredness and lack of energy

|-
|06:06
| Breathlessness

Increase in heart rate

|-
|06:10
| And Pale skin

|-
| 06:11
| Remember, with Iron -

Always consume '''Vitamin-C '''rich foods as it will help in iron absorption

|-
|06:19
|'''Vitamin-C '''also enhances immunity and thus reduces infections.

|-
| 06:25
| Next, we will learn the importance of '''Calcium '''& '''Vitamin D'''

|-
|06:30
|It is suggested to consume '''Calcium''' as it helps in development of bones

|-
|06:35
|The fetus requires '''Calcium''' for bone and teeth development.

|-
|06:39
| Low levels of '''Calcium''' can cause weak bones

|-
|06:43
|However, remember that- '''Vitamin-D''' is required to absorb '''calcium '''in the body.

|-
| 06:50
| The best way to obtain '''Vitamin-D''' is exposure to sunlight between 11.00 am to 3.00 pm for 15 to 20 mins

|-
| 06:59
| Next, we will learn about '''Choline.'''

|-
| 07:02
| '''Choline''' is important for brain development of the baby

as it enhances memory and attention span.

|-
| 07:09
| Deficiency of''' Choline''' leads to- fatty liver in adults

|-
|07:13
| Miscarriages and '''Neural tube defects''' in fetus -

which is mentioned earlier in this tutorial

|-
| 07:20
| Let’s move ahead and learn the importance of '''Zinc''',

|-
| 07:24
| '''Zinc''' is important for immunity and cell growth -

It helps in making genetic material and '''protein''' in the body

|-
|07:31
|It helps in healing of wounds.

Also it contributes to ovulation and fertility in women

|-
|07:37
|And it is important for growth of the fetus

|-
|07:40
| Note that - lack of dietary '''Zinc '''can affect the sense of taste and smell.

|-
|07:46
| Delay the growth of placenta: which is the cord that transports nutrients from mother to the fetus.

|-
| 07:53
| Lack of '''Zinc''' also affects the growth of embryo

And results in low birth weight baby

|-
| 08:00
| Another significant nutrient that we will look at, is, '''Iodine''' -

|-
|08:05
|'''Iodine''' is required by the body to maintain normal levels of thyroid hormone,

which are produced by the '''Thyroid''' '''gland'''

|-
| 08:13
| Deficiency of '''Iodine '''in mother leads to Increased risk of miscarriage and stillbirth of the baby

|-
|08:21
| It can also lead to - birth deformities

Low birth weight, Stunted growth and Mental retardation in the baby

|-
|08:30
| '''Magnesium''' is another nutrient which helps to calm the nervous system.

|-
|08:35
|It prevents - cramps and migraine headaches by relaxing the blood vessels in the brain

|-
| 08:41
| It also maintains healthy blood pressure and rhythm of the heart

|-
|08:45
| It helps in production of genetic material and enhances bone development

|-
| 08:51
| Apart from a healthy nutrition for a healthy pregnancy -

it is important to avoid Alcohol as it can lead to miscarriage or weak embryo.

|-
|09:00
|Other things to be avoided are - Tobacco

|-
| 09:03
| Cigarettes

Drugs

|-
|09:06
| Self medication

Excessive use of sugar, Tea and coffee, Junk food and sweetened beverages

|-
|09:15
| As these substances can affect reproductive health and have adverse effects on pregnancy.

|-
| 09:20
| Note that,

It is also important to manage weight before becoming pregnant,

|-
| 09:25
| Underweight women give birth to small babies or preterm babies

Which are born during 7 to 8 months of pregnancy

|-
|09:34
| Such babies are at highest risk of premature deaths.

|-
| 09:38
| However, on the other hand, Women with increased weight have - high risk of gestational diabetes and blood pressure.

|-
|09:45
|Also, it can lead to neonatal complications.

|-
| 09:49
| Therefore, women should consult a healthcare provider to maintain a healthy weight before getting pregnant.

|-
| 09:55
| Along with this, it is very important to consume a healthy, well-balanced diet containing -

vegetarian and/or non-vegetarian foods

|-
| 10:05
| Remember, that all non-veg foods are rich in - '''protein''', '''omega-3 fatty acids''', '''vitamin B-12''', '''vitamin B-9''', '''zinc''', iron , '''calcium''', '''choline''' and '''Vitamin-D'''

|-
| 10:18
| Along with animal derived food, plant derived foods,Pulses, millet, cereals, nuts and seeds will help in formation of -

|-
|10:30
| Immune system, Muscles, Bones,

|-
| 10:33
| liver, hair, skin , eyes and brain

|-
| 10:36
| Apart from these, dairy products will also aid in the formation of bones and teeth of the baby

|-
| 10:43
| Alternately, Leafy vegetables and seeds are also rich in '''Calcium ''' and help in the formation of bones and teeth of the baby

|-
| 10:52
| Like leafy vegetables, Fruits are also rich in '''Vitamin-C''' and they help in -

improving immunity, absorption of Iron and prevent infections

|-
| 11:04
| For fertility of the woman and growth of the baby - Beans, nuts and seeds should be consumed along with other non-veg food.

|-
| 11:14
| Various non-veg foods like Fish, dairy, eggs help to -maintain normal thyroid hormone,

Improve growth and prevent physical defects

|-
| 11:27
| Nuts and seeds are rich in''' magnesium''' and are essential for -

Functioning of nervous system and prevention of leg cramps

|-
| 11:35
| This brings us to the end of this tutorial on - Pre-pregnancy Nutrition.
