CHOCOLATE DATE TRUFFLES FOR MUMS-TO-BE
A SMOOTHER LABOUR
Eating dates regularly in the final weeks of pregnancy is wisdom passed from woman to woman, a nourishing tradition believed to help ease the body into labour, and it's supported by research.
FINAL DATES truffles make it easy for mums-to-be to enjoy more dates.
Studies show that eating six dates a day from 36 weeks of pregnancy is linked to a shorter labour that's less likely to need medical intervention to speed things up.
Treat yourself or gift a box to a loved oneâ it makes a perfect gift for baby showers, co-workers going on mat leave, or friends a month away from welcoming their new addition to the family.
WHOLESOME INGREDIENTS
A DECADENT PREGNANCY TREAT
FINAL DATES are crafted for mums-to-be (whether it's their first, second, third baby...) and made by hand in London with organic Medjool dates and organic and vegan dark chocolate.
Think chocolate truffles with the natural caramel notes of dates.
SO WHY DATES?
ENTER, NATURE'S POWERHOUSE
In addition to dates being a source of fibre, magnesium, potassium, calcium, B-vitamins, and folate, studies show that eating dates regularly beginning at least four weeks before your due date may help with a smoother labour.
Dates affect oxytocin receptors, making the uterine muscles respond better to oxytocin, which may result in more effective labour contractions. (You might have heard of oxytocin as the "love hormone".)
