"When you are building a little person, it’s essential that you have the right materials at the ready. Enter protein. This essential macronutrient provides the building blocks needed to build and repair cells, similar to how bricks are needed to form a wall.
Extra protein isn’t just for pregnancy though! You also need protein when you’re recovering from giving birth, because no matter how they came out, that wee one probably did a number on your body. Getting enough protein — 25 g more than usual — will help you repair and recover.
We developed Mama Bird® Protein Powder to help meet your increased protein needs during pregnancy and after giving birth without animal products or soy. Why no soy?
Because soy can act as an endocrine disruptor, meaning it can interfere with your body’s hormones. That could spell trouble for your developing child.
This formula combines pea protein with hemp protein to create a clean, plant-based protein powder with an excellent amino acid profile. We’ve made it taste delicious with natural vanilla flavor and kept it sugar-free by using stevia as a natural sweetener. Drink up, Mama!”
