Vitamin D

Vitamin D, especially from the sun exposure, is a valuable way to support postpartum health, as it aids in calcium absorption, bone health, immune function and can help with overall recovery and energy levels. 

➜ It aids in the absorption of calcium, which is essential for maintaining bone density, especially important during breastfeeding when calcium demands increase. 

➜ Adequate vitamin D levels can also positively affect mood and may help reduce the risk of postpartum depression. 

➜ If you have limited sun exposure or live in an area with long winters, consider vitamin D supplementation.
