红棕榈油为孕妇、哺乳期妇女及其婴儿提供营养支持

As new mothers care for their babies, a recent discovery in children’s nutrition provides important benefits for both mother and child.

Research shows that if mothers incorporate red palm oil into their diet, levels of provitamin A carotenoids significantly increases in both their blood serum and breastmilk which ultimately increases alpha and beta carotene levels in their baby’s serum.

This is a positive finding towards neonatal growth and paediatric health overall since vitamin A is one of the most essential nutrients for foetus, neonates and infants.

According to research conducted in Hyderabad India and Tanzania, pregnant and lactating mothers who incorporate red palm oil in moderation as salad dressing or in stir fry cooking have higher retinols level in mother and infants as well as lesser rate of anaemia (red blood cells deficiency) compared to those who don’t have red palm oil in their diet.

Provitamin A carotenoids are essential nutrients that the body converts into vitamin A. This vitamin is crucial for vision, immune function and cellular health.
