Hello All!

I am 7 weeks pregnant! I have been raw for 5 months now and I am throughly enjoying my new lifestyle. I eat a lot of fruit, salads, and of course green smoothies every day, with homemade chocolate treats/nuts for dessert.

I completely understand the philosophy of raw protein, but I want to be absolutely sure I am getting enough everyday. I found this product:

And, I am wondering what your thoughts are on taking this everyday in addition to my diet?

Also, any suggestions on polite ways to tell coworkers/friends that I am not malnourishing my baby by eating raw?

Any info would be oh-so greatly appreciated!!
