One of the biggest health issues in America often starts earlier than we think with maternal health. Things like poor diet, high stress, lack of sleep, and exposure to toxins can have lasting effects not just on women, but on their future children too. More and more, we’re seeing links between a mother’s health before and during pregnancy and rising issues like anxiety, ADHD, and postpartum depression.

To make a real difference, we need to focus on supporting women well before they get pregnant. That means helping them build healthy habits around food, sleep, stress, and emotional well-being. Taking care of moms early on can lead to better outcomes for families and set the stage for healthier generations ahead.
