Embrace 'Healthy Beginnings, Hopeful Futures' This World Health Day
Every year on April 7th, the world comes together to celebrate World Health Day, an event created by the World Health Organization (WHO) to raise awareness about global health and promote healthier lifestyles. This year, the theme is “Healthy Beginnings, Hopeful Futures” with a specific focus on newborn and maternal health.
The well-being of mothers and infants is pivotal to building healthy families and communities. In alignment with this year's World Health Day theme, here are some of the recommendations we have for supporting maternal and newborn health by providing high-quality information, nutritional supplements, and wellness products.
"Healthy Beginnings, Hopeful Futures"
According to recent WHO data, nearly 300,000 women lose their lives annually due to pregnancy or childbirth complications. Additionally, over 2 million infants die within their first month of life. These statistics underscore the urgent need for more support for mothers and babies, particularly in underserved regions of the world.
This year’s World Health Day theme focuses on providing comprehensive care during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postnatal period. The goal is to ensure proper access to healthcare, nutrition, and education for mothers and babies across the globe. Together we can reduce preventable deaths and foster healthier futures for families all over the world.
Nutrition for Maternal and Newborn Health
Proper nutrition plays a critical role in the health of mothers and newborns. The foundation of a healthy start is the right balance of vitamins and minerals to support well-being and development. To get started with healthy nutrition here are a few foundational items to consider:
Prenatal multivitamin
A prenatal multivitamin provides many of the essential nutrients the body needs during pregnancy to support a healthy mom and baby.
Our Naturelo prenatal is formulated with organic fruits and vegetables, our prenatal multivitamin provides essential nutrients like folate, iron, and calcium to support a healthy pregnancy.
Omega-3 DHA
Essential for fetal brain and eye development, omega-3 fatty acids, particularly DHA are vital during pregnancy. Many women do not eat enough fish while pregnant, which is the main source of DHA.
Our plant-based Omega-3 supplement ensures both mother and baby get enough of this important fat.
Postnatal Multivitamin
If you have ever had a baby, you know it takes quite a while to recover and feel like yourself again. A postnatal multivitamin can help support your nutritional needs while you care for your little one.
Tailored for new mothers, this supplement aids in recovery and supports breastfeeding by supplying vital nutrients.
