Product Information

Eating a variety of fresh, organic food whilst you are trying to conceive will help to maximise the nutrients available to you and your baby and will minimise your intake of additives and toxins. Even if you have an excellent diet, all women who are trying to conceive are advised to supplement their diet with 400 mcg folic acid (folate), to protect against neural tube defects and Vitamin D, to ensure that your baby has strong bones and developing teeth. Poston, L et al (1999) ‘Effect of antioxidants on the occurrence of pre-eclampsia in women at increased risk: a randomised trial’ Lancet 354 pp810-819 Taking probiotics during pregnancy can increase your immune strength, as well as that of your baby: we recommended our Multi Strain Biotic, which contains eight different strains of bacteria to support your natural gut flora. After all, 70 per cent of our immune system resides in the gut tissue, and the bacteria that resides there has a very powerful influence on your health and that of your developing baby. Our Food-Grown Immune Support and Food-Grown Vitamin C & Bioflavonoids may also support your natural resilience, while our Food-Grown Vitamin D offers protection in all seasons. (Our Food-Grown Pregnancy contains the officially recommended 10ug of Vitamin D; however, some women will need additional supplementation, especially in the darker months).

Ingredients: Lithothamnium Calcareum (Red algae) powder (providing Calcium), Purified Seawater (providing Magnesium), Nutrient-enhanced Yeast (providing Iron, Selenium, Folic acid [as naturally occurring Folate], Boron, Niacinamide, CoEnzyme Q10, Inositol, Choline, Manganese, Riboflavin, GTF Chromium, Biotin, Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, Molybdenum, Thiamin, Iodine, Vitamin K1 and Vitamin D3), Vegetable cellulose (capsule shell), Nutrient-enhanced Lactobacillus Bulgaricus (providing Zinc, Pantothenic acid and Copper), Nutrient-enhanced Citrus pulp (providing Vitamin C and Bioflavonoids), Carrot concentrate (providing Beta-carotene), Nutrient-enhanced Yellow pea (Pisum Sativum) preparation (providing Vitamin E), Alpha Lipoic acid and Heat-treated brown rice powder. Extra antioxidants will nourish stretched skin and help damaged tissues to recover from any tearing or from a caesarean. Iron can replenish stores after blood loss and calcium and magnesium will replace that used up during muscle contractions. B vitamins help you to stay calm and relaxed; they may be depleted from the high energy expenditure of birth and from any stress. Zinc, vitamin D and essential fatty acids are all protective against postnatal depression. As our community grows, so does our vision. Now, more than ever, we’re fully committed to supporting our planet, which means we strive to balance profit with purpose: we are a Certified B Corp company, which means we meet the highest standards of social and environmental performance.Wild Nutrition Food-Grown Pregnancy capsules are a combination of vitamins and minerals for pregnant women. Wild Nutrition supports pregnancy and baby development through all trimesters. If supplement, vitamin A must be in the form of beta-carotene as retinol can be toxic to your baby. For this reason, avoid eating liver that can be high in retinol. Zinc, B vitamins, iodine and essential fatty acids remain important throughout pregnancy. Sahakian, V et al (1991) ‘Vitamin B6 is effective therapy for nausea and vomiting of pregnancy: a randomised, double-blind placebo-controlled study’ Obstetrics and Gynaecology 78(1) pp33-36 Wild Nutrition Food-Grown Fertility for Women is uniquely formulated to support preconception and preparation of pregnancy. Wild Nutrition supports fertility and includes folic acid and vitamin b6. Your body will have been depleted by pregnancy and labour, yet needs to be in peak physical condition for the challenge of nurturing an infant. Eating the placenta really does make sense, but if you can’t manage that then support the body with a wide range of nutrients.

Formula fed babies may benefit from infant probiotics and essential fats to protect their digestive systems from infection and to strengthen the immune system. Founded by Henrietta Norton, she combined her knowledge of nature with her expertise in clinical trials to create Wild Nutrition. Wild Nutrition provides ‘whole body nourishment’ and tailor-made products for all stages of life. All B vitamins work together so it is useful to take a supplement containing the whole B complex. Oily fish is a good source of omega 3 fats and can be eaten twice a week, but avoid swordfish, marlin and shark and limit tuna to 4 cans or 2 fresh steaks a week to minimise mercury toxicity.Doyle, W et al (1989) ‘Maternal nutrient intake and birth weight’ Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics 2 pp415-422
