Femaltiker Choco Product to Support Lactation Chocolate Flavor 12 Sachets

Femaltiker® plus is a product based on barley malt. Its formula has been additionally enriched with choline and nutrients such as folates (folic acid and calcium L-methylfolate - FolActiv®) and vitamins B6 and B12, which nourish the woman's body. These ingredients pass into breast milk, affecting its quality and nutritional value for the baby.

Femaltiker plus ingredients and their properties:

• Short-malted barley malt - The barley malt contained in the product is briefly malted to contain as many nutrients as possible. During the malting process, the bioavailability of proteins and carbohydrates contained in barley malt increases. Short malting results in less degradation of the beta-glucan contained in barley. Only such a special formula and its appropriate technological preparation allow obtaining barley malt with a more digestible and accessible, and thus richer nutritional composition.
• Barley malt is known for its lactation properties, its use as a lactation support is considered by experts as good lactation practice. The dietary supplement was mentioned in the Position of the Expert Group on nutritional recommendations for lactating women (2023) as a preparation stimulating lactation, the effectiveness of which was confirmed by the results of a clinical trial.
• Folic acid - FolActiv® - An adequate supply of folates with the diet, also during lactation, contributes to proper blood production. Research results indicate that 90% of women aged 20-74 do not take the recommended amount of folic acid. 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) is the main storage form of folate in the human body and therefore the predominant form of folate in human milk.
• Choline - Supports the development of the child's nervous system. It also has the potential to be a factor modifying the nutritional value of milk and having an impact on its quantity8. Choline passes preferentially into mother's milk; its dietary intake is reflected in the amount of this ingredient in the milk. The recommended daily intake of choline for a breastfeeding mother is 550 mg per day9, and research results indicate that the average intake of choline from the diet by women is lower than recommended6.
• Vitamin B6 - It is an important ingredient in the diet of a breastfeeding woman, and studies of the consumption of this ingredient in a group of women indicate that up to 30% of them may not get the appropriate amount of it in their diet6, which also affects the concentration of this vitamin in breast milk. Increasing the dietary intake of vitamin B6 results in an increase in its concentration in milk.
• Vitamin B12 - It is an ingredient that influences the child's development process, and as a source of methyl residues (together with choline, vitamin B6 and folates) it is important for DNA reading. Research shows that 50% of women may not get the right amount of it in their diet. Its concentration in breast milk is highest in colostrum, then declines during the first few months of lactation.
• Vitamins B6, B12, folic acid and choline are ingredients with epigenetic potential - they pass into mother's milk and thus shape the child's development and health in the long term.
• Lemon balm extract - It has a soothing and relaxing effect in states of irritability and emotional tension.
