Hello everyone welcome back! Time to learn about new thing today. I think this post will be benefits to those people that loves to read but doesn’t want to read (what?) lol it’s kind of people that want to know or learn new thing but, they don’t want to glue up their eyes on books or maganizes. So, hows that? Besides, they just have to listen while doing anything you want, and BOOM you got new knowledge. Amazing right? Okay so now I’m going to introduce you to Podcast! So, what is it?
Podcasts- a free service that allows Internet users to pull audio files (MP3) from a podcasting Web site to listen to on their computers or personal digital audio players. The term comes from a combination of the words iPod (a personal digital audio player made by Apple) and broadcasting.
If you are ever dreamed of having your own radio show, you can start podcasting and share what you’ve got with other people 😉 Basically, this week Madam Azida asked me to listen to a podcast and review it. How’s the quality, the information, and more. She asked me to visit Podbay and choose topics that interesting. You may go to this website and browse the topics that you want to hear or gain and gain new knowledge. There are many many many interesting topics to browse on.
Basically, topic that captured my eyes is about pregnancy and about motherhood (seriously Aifaa?) I don’t know. It is kinda weird but I love to search about baby kicking, pregnancy mom’s diet 😂 no I’m not married yet, it just like early preparation (I guess? lol) So I picked “Will Eating Dates Helps Your Labour?” by Vanessa Marten. This podcast is 14 minutes long. She is basically talks about kids and family in her podcast. Basically everyone knows that, eating Dates is good for your body. Prophet Muhammad saw also said that dates are good for your health, in fact he’s also eat dates for sahoor during Ramadhan and it’s a sunnah for us muslims.

Dates are safe and beneficial to the mother and baby. The fructose sugars in dates break down quickly offering energy without altering blood sugar levels in the body. They also have laxative properties, which stimulate contractions in the uterus and shorten labor. Vanessa shared that eating 6 dates per day for 4 weeks leading to due date is good for labor! If you have diabetes you may want to consult with doctor and your midwife before eating amounts of dates. There are basically many type of dates which are Khadrawi, Dayri, Amber and many more. Different types of dates, have different taste. Some are less sweet for those who loves less sweet like me. She also said that during pregnancy, you need more energy than usual. Consuming a handful of dates every day will supply the required sugars without adding extra calories.
Other than that, Vanessa also said that babies are born with low Vitamin K. If the mother consumes dates, they meet the requirement of the vitamin when the baby breastfeeds. Vitamin K aids in clotting and bone development. Dates boost the oxytocin effect (contraction of the womb), which increases the sensitivity of the uterus. The saturated and unsaturated fatty acids in the fruit supply energy and produce prostaglandins required for labor. Also, the serotonin, calcium, and tannin present in dates help in the contraction of uterine muscles.
Vanessa gives ways of eating dates other than just only eat the date itself:
So, remember to consume at least 2-3 dates per day when you are pregnant as it will beneficial for your baby and also for yours. That is all of my feedback about Vanessa Marten's podcast. Overall, the way she delivered the message is understandable, her words are clear and precise and in fact, her intonation is good and there is no distracting noise that can distract through out the listening process. Stay tuned, for the next post!
