Many people consider stretch marks to be ‘pregnancy stripes’, something similar to what you’d get after emerging victorious from battle – and they’re not wrong! A woman goes through extreme stress during childbirth – physically and emotionally. Right after that, she has to start caring for a newborn and her body is at work again, producing milk for the infant. So it’s an understatement to say that a woman in such a stage needs all the strength and support she can get!
And there’s one thing that’s crucial in providing this strength – protein! Unfortunately, many Indian women’s diets are severely lacking in protein, especially if they’re vegetarian. And that’s why we have got exactly the solution for you – a 100% natural Protein Delight Powder. This powder contains oats and an assortment of seeds to provide your body with some healthy protein. Here’s a look at the ingredients of our Protein Delight Powder:
- Oats – A well known lactation-boosting food which also promotes relaxation
- Sunflower seeds – Extremely rich in Vitamins E & B1 along with trace minerals like copper, manganese, selenium, phosphorous; calms the nerves, muscles and blood vessels after childbirth
- Pumpkin seeds – Very high in zinc and antioxidants
- Chia seeds – High protein by weight ratio, and full of antioxidants
So if you’d like some extra protein in your diet, be sure to try out our protein powder – in the form of a delicious Protein Delight Milkshake!
