WE DIVE INTO the topic of Low tox beauty and products in pregnancy. WE GO DEEP with Naturopath Jennifer Ward who OPENS UP about how she approached chemical exposures in preparing for pregnancy.

 

Why should women care about their skin care regime and the types of products they use when preparing for pregnancy and when pregnant?

 

Should the male partner also use low tox products?

 

What chemicals / substances should be avoided in skin care products?

 

How do you figure out what is “safe” to use and what isn’t “safe” in products?

 

What was Jennifer’s personal skin care routine in her recent pregnancy?

 

Can she recommend any books or resources to navigate this subject of skin care in periconception/ pregnancy?

 

A little bit about Jennifer Ward:

 

She is a Senior Naturopath and owner of Halsa Health; is trained in herbal medicine, nutritional medicine, health & lifestyle coaching and is currently completing a Masters of Reproductive Medicine.

 

Her passion lies in reproductive health. The journey to becoming a first-time mother is an exciting and often overwhelming time, and Jennifer provides support and guidance through the journey from deciding to start trying, to all the way into the fourth trimester. She works with each patient and their healthcare team including GPs, midwives, Obstetricians, doulas and acupuncturists.

Jennifer’s journey to naturopathic fertility care began when she started to plan for her first child, Lily. Through her own positive experience, she was able to better understand the journey to motherhood each step of the way which she is now fortunate to pass on to her patients. Her journey inspired further studies into Reproductive Medicine which is assisting her to bridge the gap between the world of medicine and alternative therapies.

Jennifer finds it most rewarding when her patients speak positively about their pregnancy experience and carry on that vitality into the fourth trimester and beyond.

 

I hope you enjoy our chat.
