Pregnancy is a magical time in a woman’s life. The notion of growing a human being inside you is a miracle and an incredible thing to experience. But are you getting all the nutrients you need?

Women who have experienced pregnancy know that there are plenty of symptoms they could do without. Morning sickness, fatigue and fluid retention are tough to deal with and the entire experience promises to be a wild ride of changes. 

You probably know that a healthy, balanced diet is important for you and your baby, but nausea can mess with your appetite and pregnancy can also play havoc with your digestion. Pregnancy advice from family and friends can be tricky too as overloading on information can lead to confusion. 
 

Did you know that getting enough of the right nutrients can help ensure a healthy and comfortable pregnancy?

Nutritional formulas such as Frisomum, a maternal milk, are helpful for pregnant women and their growing babies.

Important Notice!

Breastfeeding is the best nutrition for healthy growth and development of babies. Good maternal nutrition helps sustain an adequate supply and quality of breast milk. Unnecessary introduction of bottle-feeding, partially or fully, or of other complementary foods and drinks may have a negative impact on breastfeeding, which may be irreversible. Consult your doctor and consider the social and financial implications before deciding to use breast milk substitutes or if you have difficulty breastfeeding. Follow usage, preparation and storage instructions of breast milk substitutes or of other complementary foods and drinks carefully as improper or unnecessary use may pose a health hazard.
