B-Natal from Nutraceutics:
An Easy And Gentle Way To Lick Morning Sickness!
It's true, that until you walk in another's shoes, you can't fully comprehend what that person feels. That is how my search began to find a therapy to relieve the nausea pregnant women experience.
The joy and excitement I felt when I became pregnant was quickly over-shadowed by bouts of morning sickness, which often lasted throughout the day. It was a debilitating misery I'd never encountered and for which I was completely unprepared. I spoke with my doctor about any possible relief and was offered a prescription that might work, but I was not happy with that solution. I wanted something natural, effective and safe. Knowing my nutraceutical background, he referred me to a compounding pharmacist who was doing some work with a vitamin B6 treatment. I researched the subject thoroughly and found that vitamin B6 has been prescribed for nausea since 1942. Vitamin B6, also known as pyridoxine, is a water soluble vitamin and essential co-enzyme that aids in the metabolism of lipids, carbohydrates and proteins.
I contacted Lee Ori, the compounding pharmacist my doctor recommended, and discussed my ideas with him. Together, we came up with B-natal, a TheraPop, that contains the correct amount of vitamin B6 found to soothe morning sickness and sugar - known to calm an upset stomach. In the sucker-form, the cherry flavor tastes good, is soothing and provides an oral distraction that is comforting. Finally, sweet relief for me and my fellow sisters who are suffering.
Best of health,
