285. Pregnancy, Genetics, and Missing Nutrients with Aimee Aminnaugh

Aimee Minnaugh’s story begins with heartbreak and unfolds into purpose: after multiple miscarriages and the discovery of a genetic mutation that blocked her body’s ability to process folic acid, she refused to accept inadequate prenatal care. In this episode she guides listeners through her personal search for answers, the science that changed everything, and the moment she teamed up with clinicians to design a better prenatal supplement for others. We follow Aimee from the sleepless, confusing days piecing together dozens of pills to the relief of a thoughtfully formulated sachet, and hear practical postpartum wisdom on hydration, pelvic-floor care, and why nutrition before conception matters. If you’re curious, cautious, or craving clarity about prenatal and postpartum nutrition, this episode is honest, hopeful, and deeply helpful.
