Preconception Care – When and Where to Begin?

The preconception period is an important window of opportunity to ensure

you have all of the nutrients required not only to conceive, but also to

nourish the growing foetus, and ultimately deliver the healthiest baby

possible. Preconception care should ideally begin at least three to four

months prior to trying to conceive, allowing adequate preparation time

for both parents to achieve optimal health.

Comprehensive preconception and pregnancy care involves both

parents adopting a healthy diet and lifestyle, as well as appropriate

supplementation to lay the nutritional foundation required to grow a

healthy baby. If having a baby is on your ‘to do’ list in the foreseeable

future, your Visible Effects Practitioner can guide you through an appropriate

preconception and pregnancy care program specific to your individual

needs.

Sight is considered one of the most precious of the senses and

yet the health of our eyes is an all too often neglected area

of wellbeing. Eye related complaints are not just limited to your

parents, grandparents or the older generations. In the modern

world, eye related complaints such as eye strain, blurred

vision, red eyes and visual fatigue are becoming increasingly

common in younger generations due to hours of staring at a

computer, television screen or computer games.

Although it can be difficult to cut down on computer time,

fortunately there are natural ingredients that may alleviate

the annoying symptoms of eye strain as well as reduce your

chances of vision loss associated with age. Be proactive about

eye health and ask your Visible Effects Practitioner how to maintain healthy

vision. It’s never too early to start looking after your eyesight!

The lymphatic system is a network of small, thin vessels that

are primarily responsible for transporting immune cells around

the body and draining fluid and wastes from the body tissues.

Supporting healthy lymphatic function decreases the toxic
