Salus Floravit 700 ml

Salus - Floravit Liquid Iron and Vitamins Formula.

Iron is an essential mineral that is needed to deliver oxygen to every cell in the body including the womb. Our cells use this oxygen to make energy, and one of the highest demands for energy is growth of a baby in utero. Therefore, during pregnancy and breastfeeding the body requires significantly more iron to meet the demands for the growth and development of a child. Floravit helps pregnant women meet the recommended intake for iron when taken in conjunction with a healthy diet. This supplement also helps prevent iron deficiency anemia in adults and adolescents, and to maintain good health. 

About Product:

According to Health Canada, iron deficiency is the most common nutritional deficiency during pregnancy. Iron deficiency during pregnancy can increase the risk of maternal and infant mortality, premature birth, low birth weight and impaired cognitive and behavioral development. During childbirth there is blood loss and continuing into the following weeks, resulting in a depletion of iron stores in new moms. While breastfeeding, a baby requires high amounts of iron to continue healthy growth and development. Sleeplessness in new parenthood is normal, but iron deficiency is a separate and preventable cause of postpartum fatigue. Therefore, making it crucial to ensure you are meeting the recommended iron intake to meet the demands for the growth and development of your baby and for your own health. Iron picks up oxygen from the lungs, loads it onto red blood cells, and transports it to every cell in the body, including the womb. Our cells then use this oxygen to make energy. It can be challenging to meet the iron recommendations by diet alone, especially during the increased requirements during pregnancy and breastfeeding, therefore making supplementation crucial at these times. Floravit is a liquid iron supplement that is safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and it promotes the formation of healthy red blood cells. In this formula iron is in the form called ferrous gluconate, which is effectively absorbed, gentle on the stomach, and unlikely to cause digestive upset or constipation. Floravit also provides vitamins B1, B2, B6, and B12. These vitamins work with iron to promote the formation of healthy red blood cells, to treat and prevent anemia during pregnancy and postpartum. Also, B vitamins are essential for the conversion of oxygen into energy once it has been delivered to our cells. This supplement is suitable for pregnant and breastfeeding women, while it is also suitable for children, adolescents, and non-pregnant individuals who require supplementation to achieve healthy iron levels.
