Biotin, also called Vitamin B8 or Vitamin B7 in many countries, is a water-soluble vitamin, which is therefore easily eliminated through urine.
It contributes to the maintenance of normal skin and hair.

Biotin is a coenzyme that plays a key role in nutrient metabolism. It participates in particular in the synthesis of amino acids and proteins and in the production of fatty acids, essential for a healthy scalp.

Vitamin B8 deficiency leads to hair loss, split ends or brittle and weak nails.

The intestinal flora produces vitamin B8, but in insufficient quantities. We can therefore increase our biotin intake through diet (chicken liver, legumes, soya, eggs for example) or through appropriate supplementation.

Iodine plays an essential role at all stages of motherhood. According to the WHO (World Health Organization), iodine is used for the proper development of the brain of the fetus and young child.

During the first months, the fetus depends exclusively on its mother's thyroid hormones. It needs iodine to grow and to produce its own thyroid hormones, which play an essential role in its neurosensory development.

Our iodine comes from fucus, an algae with multiple virtues. Our iodine being natural, it adjusts better to the woman's needs and limits the risk of overdose.

Choline, or more precisely citicoline (the generic name for CDP-choline), is an organic molecule produced endogenously and present in all living cells.

Choline has many benefits: it prevents the risk of pre-eclampsia and allows the proper development of the placenta, could reduce the risk of neural tube defects, premature birth and promotes the proper development of the organs and memory of your future baby.

The human body can produce choline via the liver, but in very small quantities. It is therefore better to try to favor external contributions, whether in food or food supplements.

Still rare in France in prenatal multivitamins, we have chosen to include from the start in our formulation a patented form of choline, Cognizin®.

Utilisé à des fins médicinales depuis de nombreux siècles en Inde notamment (1) , le safran est une épice aux actifs puissants, aujourd’hui connus et étudiés pour leur effet positif sur l’anxiété et la dépression (2-4) . Une étude réalisée chez 60 nouvelles mamans a montré qu’une consommation de 30 mg de safran, un dosage similaire à celui de notre produit Post-Partum, pouvait réduire significativement le score associé aux sentiments dépressifs.
D’autres études, menées chez des personnes anxieuses et dépressives, ont montré que le safran avait un impact positif dans la prise en charge de l’anxiété et la dépression (3,6) .
