Gestational Diabetes
TESTIMONIALS
We're so proud of our mamas!
Kristen (Oakland, CA)
“When I found out I had GD early in my pregnancy, I struggled to find healthy and delicious recipes to keep my body in balance. To be perfectly honest, I am not great in the kitchen and trying to create recipes after working all day was extremely stressful for me, so I was excited when Anja approached me about this idea for Julienne. I wish I had had it during my pregnancy with my son! Knowing there is a thoughtful cooking plan (that I do not have to come up with myself) designed to help my body and baby remain healthy during and after pregnancy, makes me feel so much more at ease. I know I will be using Julienne if I ever get pregnant again, to ensure I prevent GD in the future!”
Claire (San Luis Obispo)
"When I first received my Gestational Diabetes diagnosis I went through a whirlwind of emotions. I felt helpless and scared not knowing what nutritional steps I needed to take to ensure the health of myself and my daughter. I remember becoming overwhelmed about managing my glucose levels which really took the "fun" out of cooking while pregnant and turned it into a chore. Looking back at my journey, I wish I could've leveraged Julienne to help simplify meal planning. Having cooking plans on hand that are both nutritious and easy to make would've completely changed my GD experience for the better. I know next time around I'll definitely use Julienne to help prevent GD in the future!"
Katie (Boston, MA)
“Being a new Mom, it was so important to learn recipes to nourish the body and soul....not only for me, but for my little ones. Julienne provided a space to learn how to cook in a way that was creative, healthy, and fun. I learned the basics of cooking, food choices, and farm-to-table nourishment. Both the parents and our little ones thank you!!”
