Post-natal support for mum and baby Pregnacare® Breastfeeding is specially formulated to help support the nutritional requirements of new mothers throughout the postnatal period and while breastfeeding. During this time a healthy, varied diet is vital for new mothers, to help produce nutritious breast milk and maintain their own health and wellbeing. Breastfeeding tablets Carefully formulated by experts, including: - 700mg calcium, vitamins K & D, zinc and magnesium which contribute to the maintenance of normal bones. - Calcium and vitamin K which contribute to normal blood clotting. - Vitamin B6, niacin, iron and magnesium which contribute to normal energy release. - Includes 10µg vitamin D as recommended by the Department of Health for all women while breastfeeding. - Nutritional tablets produced to high GMP³ quality. High purity Omega-3 capsules - Maternal intake of DHA (Docosahexaenoic acid) contributes to the normal brain and eye development of breastfed infants². - Infants have limited capability to synthesize fatty acids, which therefore must be obtained directly from external sources such as the mother's milk. - Each capsule provides 300mg DHA, the level recommended by international experts¹ (ISSFAL) for mums during lactation. - Fish oil produced to high GMP3 quality. Certified for sustainability by Friend of The Sea. Most Recommended by Midwives¹ 1. The pregnancy supplement brand midwives recommend most. 2. A beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 200mg DHA in addition to the recommended daily intake of omega-3 fatty acids for adults. 3. Good Manufacturing Practice. 4. Journal of the American College of Nutrition, Vol. 18, No. 5, 487-489 (1999). When is Pregnacare® Breastfeeding recommended? Pregnacare® Breastfeeding provides comprehensive multivitamin support combined with calcium & Omega-3 fatty acids, which are especially important at this time. - The ideal postnatal supplement for the 12 months following childbirth, to help ensure optimum levels of nutrients. - Can be taken whether or not you are breastfeeding and can be used for as long as required. This comprehensive formula replaces other Pregnacare® supplements and multivitamins. There is no need to take an additional multivitamin. - To maintain health throughout breastfeeding as the intake recommendations of certain nutrients are increased during lactation. Maternal breastfeeding is strongly recommended for the newborn baby as it provides essential nutrients and antibodies for long term health. - To help maintain normal bone health in mothers who avoid dairy products and for breastfeeding mothers.
