JUNGLE JUICE RECIPE

There have been a few queries about the Jungle Juice Recipe recommended in the book for breastfeeding mums (Pg 80 in the Baby Sense book). All the ingredients are available here in the UK, but they are not all easy to find. We can help:

• Blackthorn berry tonic (Schlehen Elixir) - this seems to be the most difficult to get hold of. It is made by Weleda and any good healthfood store will be able to order it in for you directly from Weleda. Or you can order it online at www.weleda.co.uk. If you type Schlehen Elixir into their search you should find it. You can also telephone them and give them your post code, and they can tell you who stocks it in your area.
• Apple, berry or grape juice as well as the water - no problems there I am sure.
• Fruit flavoured Rehydrate solution - ask your pharmacist for advice on a formulation that is safe for lactating women and infants.
• Cal-c Vita - use any good vitamin C effervescent like Berocca.
