Whole Grains: Oats, brown rice, whole wheat bread, and pasta provide lasting energy. Leafy Greens & Veggies: Spinach, broccoli, and carrots provide iron and essential vitamins. Iron-Rich Foods: Pulses, legumes, and lean red meats. Healthy Snacks: Fruit smoothies, nuts, yogurt, and seed-based snacks. Hydration and Nutrition Tips Hydration: Drink at least 8 to 12 glasses of water daily to maintain milk supply.
