Our daily iron requirements are increased during pregnancy and lactation to support the healthy growth and development of baby in utero², and to support mom’s energy levels and mood during breastfeeding⁸.

It is important to have our iron tested during pregnancy and six to eight weeks postpartum so that we can adjust our diet and supplements to achieve and maintain healthy levels. Since iron deficiency is common in pregnancy³, and it can increase the risk of complications for mom and baby⁴, Health Canada recommends daily iron supplementation of 16-20mg during pregnancy².

Floravit is safe in pregnancy and breastfeeding, gentle on digestion, free from alcohol, artificial colours and flavours, yeast, dairy, and gluten, and it is vegan-friendly.
