Why Post.?
In the first weeks of postpartum, our bodies are going through one of the biggest shifts in hormones that it will ever experience & our digestive system is working at a much slower pace. Therefore it's key to keep meals simple, warm and nutrient dense, alongside prioritising hydration even more so than normal. Post. Nutrition offers simple menus with intentions of support & ease so that you can concentrate on allowing your body to recover whilst slowing down and sinking into the motherhood journey.
Post. Principles
1
Keep it warm.
Everything we consume (eat and drink) should be warm. Ayurvedic & ancient chinese medicine suggests that cold food or drink can make it harder for our body to recover in its most natural state.
2
Keep it simple.
Our digestive system is in a very sensitive place during the postpartum phase so keeping the food as simple as possible makes it easy for our bodies to absorb their nutrients and maximise what they can do for us.
3
Keep it soft.
It's suggested that soft food also helps us digest food easier. Hard or raw foods are not as easy to digest and can take longer for our bodies to absorb.​
