Nutritional support while you breastfeed
As a Nutritionist and a mother of two, I know personally how demanding breastfeeding can be and the difference good nutrition can make.
I’ve included whey protein, collagen and iron to aid your recovery and 100% of your recommended dietary intake (RDI) of seven B vitamins to help combat common feelings of tiredness. The inclusion of zinc, selenium, vitamin D and 5 billion probiotics provides a boost to your immune system and your milk supply is supported through the galactagogues (i.e. fennel and fenugreek) and Omega 3 fatty acids which pass through your breastmilk to your baby.
