Welcome to my web site!
A few months ago, I happened across a message board for expectant and new moms, and a couple of blogs about pregnancy by and
for moms. As I read, I found that there were many questions and misconceptions and bits of inaccurate information about the
Brewer Diet out there. So I decided to create a place that could be a resource for information about this diet which has
helped many thousands of mothers over the past five decades. I'm hoping that this can be a place where mothers, fathers,
birth attendants, and nutritionists can come and find answers to their questions.
See here for a list of some of the more common misconceptions about the Brewer Diet
On this website, you will find explanations about various aspects of nutrition in pregnancy, a newsletter where conferences
are listed and current news items related to pregnancy, birthing, breastfeeding, and parenting are highlighted, and a page
where your questions are answered. You will also find a list of websites, articles, and books related to the Brewer Diet,
with links that will enable you to find the ones that interest you. There is also a page of books and articles that cover
other popular issues of pregnancy and parenthood.
There is also a page of items related to the history of the Brewer Diet. These items include a 130-year timeline of the development
of the Brewer Diet, an overview of the history of the Brewer Diet, a reprint of Dr. Brewer's Contra Costa County Clinics nutrition
lecture, a link to a November 2004 interview with Dr. Brewer (1 year before his death), and a reprint of the SPUN pamphlet.
Finally, there is a page of tribute to Dr. Tom Brewer. Many of us were saddened by the news of his passing from this world,
and we feel the loss of his presence amongst us quite keenly. I would be glad to add your tributes to this page as well,
in addition to links for any others which you are aware of.
So welcome to you all!
I hope that the information that you find here will help you have a healthy pregnancy and a
healthy baby. Please include your midwife in your decision-making process.
I'm glad that you stopped by.
Peace,
Joy
