Take Steps to Boost Your Immune System in Pregnancy
Historically, doctors believed that pregnancy was associated with immune suppression and thus treated pregnant women as immunologically weak. If this were true, then boosting your immune system in pregnancy surely would sound like an oxymoron. Fortunately, modern science has debunked this myth. The latest scientific evidence suggests that the immune system in pregnancy is highly functional and much more complex than originally assumed.
Your immune system in pregnancy is active and thriving, especially if it is getting adequate immune support through nutrition, movement, breath and stress management. If you’d like to take steps to naturally support your immune system and the health of you and your unborn baby, please join us for a highly beneficial and enjoyable workshop next week!
Four women’s health specialists and supporters of the Flourish Fund have partnered to offer a special workshop for expectant mothers and birth professionals on boosting the immune system in pregnancy. This will be a live, engaging discussion and relaxing, stress-reducing experience for all attendees. Join us!
