Research Paper on Post Natal Nutrition
TO MAMAS WHO HAVE HAD A BABY IN THE LAST 24 MONTHS
I’m doing a research paper on post-natal nutrition and am looking to interview as many women as I can on this topic.
I’m exploring the areas of:
- nutrition
- supplementation
- emotional & physical hurdles; &
- stress.
In short, I’d like to understand the relationship between nutrition and the emotional and physical challenges we experience post-natally in order to assess how to be more resilient.
If you are interested in being a part of this project, please email me.
If you know of anyone who has had a baby in the last 24 months, please pass on this message.
First 20 ladies to reply get Thrive’s Post-Natal Makeover Recipe Booklet of 20+ nourishing recipes to help with milk supply, rebuilding iron and mineral levels, hormone rebalancing, sleep & sex drive.

And the majority of women start a hormonal birth control protocol when they are teenagers.
