The Science

Science-informed support for the months after birth.

Postpartum nutrition is its own subject. Here is the reasoning behind the formula — what pregnancy, birth and breastfeeding draw on, and which nutrients clinicians and dietitians discuss most in the months after birth.

Built around postpartum nutritional needs.

Postpartum nutrition is its own subject. Clinicians and dietitians look at diet, blood loss, breastfeeding, sleep, medications and lab results before deciding what a mother needs. Postpartum Daily is built on the nutrients that come up in that conversation again and again.

  • Choline — an essential nutrient for cell structure and neurotransmitter synthesis, with lactation intakes set higher than pregnancy.
  • Iron — contributes to normal red blood cell formation; stores are often low after delivery.
  • Iodine — required for normal thyroid hormone production and passed into breast milk.
  • Vitamin D — contributes to normal bone and immune function; status is often low in Canadian winters.
  • B vitamins — folate, B6 and B12 support normal energy metabolism and blood formation.
  • DHA and magnesium — commonly discussed in maternal nutrition for brain, nerve and muscle function.

What pregnancy and birth draw on.

The reasoning behind a postpartum-specific formula, in plain language.

Pregnancy and birth draw down her stores.

Blood loss, tissue repair and months of building a baby pull on iron, choline, vitamin D and B vitamins.

Breastfeeding raises the bar again.

Choline, iodine and DHA recommendations are higher during lactation than during pregnancy.

Short nights and skipped meals make it hard to catch up.

Regular, balanced food is the first thing to go when nights are short.

She puts herself last.

Every appointment and app is about the baby. Her own nutrition quietly falls off the list.

How we choose what goes in.

Nutrients earn their place by having an established function, a realistic shortfall in postpartum diets, and wording that can appear on a licensed Canadian label.
