Spirulina and Pregnancy

As a mother’s health dramatically affects the baby’s nutrient levels, sufficient levels of these nutrients offer the best opportunity for a healthy baby. It is important for a pregnant woman to have adequate nutrition in order to provide the proper ‘building blocks’ for a growing foetus. The baby will take what it needs from the mother’s body, sometimes leaving the mother seriously depleted of nutrients. This could affect areas like labour and post-parturition nursing ability.

As an example, a study by Professor Bryce-Smith in England found that low pre-birth

nutrition levels can result in behavioural disorders and impaired development. It can also

leave the baby short of the nutrients so important for its development, as it can only get what is available. Because major stages of embryonic development occur in the first few weeks of conception (before many women know they are pregnant), prospective mothers are prudent to optimise their nutritional status.

The modern diet of ‘chemically’ grown foods subject to long storage and further ‘shelf-life’ treatments leaves much to be desired nutritionally. Pure, clean, unprocessed foods provide the most bio-available and balanced nutrients, and in the most part far more absorbable than the common synthetic vitamin/mineral supplements. Therefore mothers and mothers-to-be who-get their nutrients from high-quality foods and super-foods will be in a considerably better position for optimal health.

Synergy Natural Spirulina is considered and often quoted as the most nutritious wholefood available today. Synergy Natural Spirulina consists of nutrients that are entirely naturally grown without artificial chemicals, thereby providing organic nutrients at very impressive levels. Added to this is Spirulina’s rapid nutrient bioavailability due to the simple cell wall that dissolves on contact with the digestive system. This releases the abundant nutrients immediately (a digestibility coefficient of 95%, in fact!), all without burdening the digestive system with breakdown tasks. This is also provided without the added toxic chemicals used with growing and/or preserving other foods; and its 100% vegan/vegetarian too!

Nutrients of special interest found abundantly in Synergy Natural Spirulina include iron (58x more than spinach), beta-carotene (pro-vitamin A – 25x more than carrots), B vitamins (especially B12 – 2 to 6x richer than liver), Vitamin E (3x more than wheat germ), calcium, protein, chlorophyll and many others. It is the richest whole-food source of anti-oxidants, including SOD and many anti-oxidant nutrients.

Please read the Synergy Natural Spirulina brochure for more details.

Pregnant women often require extra Vitamin A. This nutrient is not recommended during pregnancy as it can cause toxicity, but as beta-carotene (pro-vitamin A) it has been shown to be non-toxic. This makes Synergy Natural Spirulina a safe natural multi-nutrient supplement to take during gestation and for post-parturition nutritional boosting. Join the thousands of women who consider Synergy Natural Spirulina to be the ideal natural health enhancement supplement for pre-conception, gestation, post-parturition and feeding.
