Iron is an essential nutrient for the supply of oxygen to the body's cells.

Description:

• There is significant blood loss during childbirth and in the weeks that follow, which can lead to a depletion of iron stores in new mothers.
• During breastfeeding, a baby needs large quantities of iron for healthy growth and development.
• Mothers also need to be able to maintain healthy iron levels for their own health.
• Post-partum fatigue in breastfeeding women is strongly associated with post-partum depression and early cessation of breastfeeding.

Health Canada recommends daily iron supplementation of 16-20 mg during pregnancy to reduce these risks.

The best way to find out if you're iron deficient is to have a blood test to measure your ferritin, which is the body's iron reserve. Our ferritin levels are unreliable in the first six weeks after delivery, so it should be tested during pregnancy and repeated six to eight weeks after delivery.

Floravit provides vitamins B1, B2, B6 and B12. These vitamins work in synergy with iron to promote healthy red blood cell formation, helping to treat and prevent anemia during pregnancy and the post-partum period. In addition, B vitamins are essential for the conversion of oxygen into energy once it has been delivered to the body's cells.

Floravit contains a blend of nutrient-rich vegetables, fruits and herbs that have been carefully selected to improve digestion and iron absorption. The formula is free from alcohol, artificial colors and flavors, and is yeast-free, dairy-free, gluten-free and perfectly suited to vegans.

Floravit is also suitable for children, teenagers and anyone who needs a supplement to boost their iron levels.

Ingredient features:

The daily need for iron increases during pregnancy and breastfeeding to support the proper growth and development of the child in utero, as well as the mother's energy levels and mood during lactation.

It is important to have your iron levels checked during pregnancy, as well as six to eight weeks after delivery, so that you can adapt your diet and supplementation to achieve and maintain adequate iron levels. Since iron deficiency is common in pregnant women3 and can increase the risk of complications for both mother and baby , Health Canada recommends a daily supplement of 16-20 mg of iron per day during pregnancy.
