Italfarmaco Iofolen Lactancia 60 capsules

The Iofolen Lactancia is the most complete nutritional supplement for the mother during breastfeeding, since it covers exactly those nutrients that the nursing mother and the infant need and indeed in the appropriate quantities, according to the most recent International Guidelines.

The  Iofolen Lactancia addressed to:

To all breastfeeding women, either exclusively or in addition (in combination with cow's milk products and solid foods), and for as long as breastfeeding lasts.
To achieve ideal brain development and cognitive functions, Iofolen lactancia contains besides Omega 3 fatty acids (DHA) and iodine, The taurine, which is very important for the development of the nerve cells of infants and the subsequent learning ability of children.

In addition, taurine together with Ω3 (DHA), contained in Iofolen Lactancia also affects the retina, resulting in the improvement and protection of visual acuity of infants. In infants, the lack of taurine from the diet is associated with a decrease in the digestion and absorption of lipids.

Almost all infants are born with low levels of it vitamin A.,
which has a beneficial effect on the immune system and the perception of light by the eyes. Taking Iofolen Lactancia by the nursing mother will benefit the infant, providing him with a sufficient amount of vitamin A. 

Iofolen Lactancia contains Vitamin E which combined with the vitamin C in lactating women it results in the strengthening of breast milk in antioxidant substances.

The calcium contained in Iofolen Lactancia ensures the maintenance of the health of the mother's bones, as during breastfeeding calcium moves from the mother's bones to the breast milk to meet the needs of the newborn. These losses of the mother's bone calcium are compensated by supplementing her diet with calcium.

Η Vitamin D helps the absorption of calcium from the bones, and is naturally produced by the human body when sunlight comes into contact with the skin. However, infants and nursing mothers are little exposed to the sun, while breast milk is also relatively poor in vitamin D, as a result of which it is necessary to supplement the appropriate amounts of it Vitamin D in the mother's diet. The Iofolen Lactancia contains a sufficient amount of vitamin D for the nursing mother and her baby and contributes to the maintenance of the mother's bone mass and the proper skeletal development of the infant.

The Omega 3 fatty acids (DHA & EPA) of Iofolen Lactancia, reduce the risk of postpartum depression (DHA) and exert a cardioprotective effect (EPA) in the mother.
