Mother's Blend

This natural herb, vitamin, mineral and amino acid supplement is designed to optimize maternal and infant nutrition after pregnancy, enhance lactation, and balance hormones and mood, which are often in transition after childbirth. When regular menstrual cycles return, Mother's Blend can also help reduce PMS symptoms.

Many women experience the "baby blues" after delivery. As many as 75% of new mothers experience some degree of mild mood change or hormone swings. Among typical new mothers, there is also a small percentage that are not able to make enough milk to support a baby.

Most women just continue taking prenatal vitamins for nutritional maintenance after pregnancy, but that doesn't provide support for the special needs of a woman after delivery. Mother's Blend contains all the vitamins and minerals in a typical prenatal- Vitamins A, C, D, E, B-complex, calcium, iron, and other minerals. In addition, Mother's Blend, an innovative patent-pending formula, offers the following benefits:

• The herb, Chasteberry, supports healthy lactation and postpartum hormone balance.
• The minerals calcium and magnesium help support lactation and reduce calcium loss in breastfeeding mothers.
• Another herb, St. John's Wort, contributes to an overall sense of well-being and minor mood regulation.
• Omega-3 oils, such as Flaxseed, help enhance mood, as well as infant brain development.
• The nutrients, vitamin C, B6, B12, folate, magnesium, iron, zinc and chromium also help support mood and reduce mild fatigue.
• The antioxidants, vitamin A, C, E, green tea and selenium contribute to maintenance of cell membrane integrity and overall recovery.
• Nutrients such as B vitamins and magnesium contribute to stress reduction and nerve function.
• The mineral chromium helps with maintenance of glucose balance.

Recommended use: As a dietary supplement, take three tablets daily with food. Can take all three together, or spread apart over the day. Drink plenty of water during breastfeeding to replace the fluid loss. Calcium should be further supplemented if your diet is not high in dairy products.
