Kate Middleton's postpartum recovery program

The best beauty specialists have developed a program to restore hair, skin and figure after childbirth especially for Kate Middleton. I WANT to share royally simple recipes with my readers!

Already on the second day after giving birth to her son George, the Duchess of Cambridge left the hospital and appeared in public. Despite this, the style icon looked no worse than before her pregnancy. Experts are confident that in the coming months, due to sleepless nights and breastfeeding, Kate will need special care for her body and hair.

Figure

While breastfeeding, mothers should avoid many foods that are harmful to the baby and still eat healthy, high-calorie foods. Under no circumstances should you go on strict diets and limit yourself in food. Fitness guru James Duigan, who has worked with Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Elle Macpherson, advises: "It's important not to overdo it by cutting calories as your body needs energy to produce milk. You can also lose up to 500 calories a day through breastfeeding." "Choose healthy carbohydrates: sweet potatoes, a variety of fruits, quinoa, root vegetables and vegetables."

As for physical exercise, James recommends moving a little every day: short walks, express training or swimming. His colleague, trainer Felicity Cole, insists on holding off on training for the first four to six weeks after giving birth and starting at least a month later, gradually increasing the load: “The initial goal is to improve the overall well-being of the new mother. Pregnancy can completely change your figure and physical condition , so it’s important to adjust both in time.”

Hair

One of the “side effects” of pregnancy is thick and beautiful hair. All these transformations are due to the increased level of estrogen in the body, but after childbirth, its quantity decreases sharply and the hair of young mothers begins to fall out and break.

Middleton has always been proud of her hair, and to prevent its beauty from fading, renowned hair beauty expert Joe Hansford recommends a special postpartum diet. Your daily diet should include foods rich in healthy fats and B vitamins, as well as oils high in Omega-3 saturated fatty acids, including fish oil and flaxseed oil.

Also, special attention should be paid to drying the hair itself; after childbirth, it is not recommended to dry your hair with a hairdryer or wring it vigorously with a towel. Experts advise lightly patting washed hair with a towel and letting it dry naturally or braid it.

Leather

Problematic skin is the first problem that mothers face after childbirth. Pigmentation, pimples and dryness are the cause of hormonal imbalance. The hormone progesterone, the level of which increases during pregnancy and is so good for the skin, decreases after childbirth and causes the opposite effect.

World-renowned skin care specialist Sarah Chapman recommends using moisturizing masks and creams with a high level of sun protection every day. To restore a healthy complexion to your skin, Sarah recommends a serum with hyaluronic acid.

Do not neglect folk remedies: wash your face with herbal decoctions - viburnum, chamomile and St. John's wort. It is also necessary to exclude the consumption of strong black tea, coffee, smoked, fried and salty foods from the menu.
