Revealing The Science Behind Isomum: Why an Isotonic Drink is Needed For Your Pregnancy
Isomum, an isotonic drink specifically designed for women during pregnancy, labour, postnatal recovery, and breastfeeding, has taken the market by storm. But what is the science behind this innovative drink for delivering electrolytes during pregnancy, and how does it support pregnant and nursing women? In this article, we’ll delve into the research and expert opinions behind Isomum to explain its benefits.
1. The Importance of Hydration and Electrolyte Balance
Maintaining proper hydration and electrolyte balance is essential for everyone, but it becomes even more crucial during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Pregnant women require increased fluid intake to support the growth and development of their babies and to maintain their own health. Electrolytes, such as sodium, potassium, and magnesium, play vital roles in maintaining proper bodily functions, including muscle contractions, nerve impulses, and fluid balance.
Isomum is designed to support healthy hydration and electrolyte balance by providing a mix of essential electrolytes, ensuring that pregnant and nursing women have the nutrients they need.

Our very own midwife with a special focus on mental health support during pregnancy and postpartum.
“Hello, I’m Darcey Croft, the founder of Isomum, and a midwife with a special focus on mental health support during pregnancy and postpartum.
“Throughout my career, I have witnessed the importance of balanced hydration and its impact on women’s health during pregnancy, labour, and postpartum recovery. Today, I would like to share some insights about a common, yet often misdiagnosed, condition that can arise from unbalanced electrolyte levels during labour, and how Isomum can help prevent it.
1. Understanding Hyponatraemia
Hyponatraemia is a condition that occurs when the level of sodium in the blood is too low. During labour, at least 26% of women experience an imbalance in electrolyte levels, which can lead to hyponatraemia.
Symptoms of hyponatraemia may include headache, nausea, vomiting, seizures, and even coma. Unfortunately, these symptoms are often similar to those of pre-eclampsia, a potentially life-threatening obstetric emergency!
As a result, hyponatraemia can be easily misdiagnosed, leading to unnecessary interventions and stress.
2. The Role of Balanced Hydration
Balanced hydration is crucial during labour to prevent the development of hyponatraemia. This involves not only drinking enough water, but also ensuring that the body has the right balance of electrolytes. Electrolytes, such as sodium, potassium, and magnesium, are essential for maintaining proper bodily functions, including fluid balance, muscle contractions, and nerve impulses. By maintaining balanced electrolyte levels, we can help reduce the risk of hyponatraemia and other complications during labour.
3. How Isomum Can Help
Isomum is a scientifically formulated isotonic drink designed to support the unique needs of pregnant and nursing women, including balanced hydration during labour. Our drink provides a mix of essential electrolytes, ensuring that women have the nutrients they need to maintain proper fluid balance and avoid the development of hyponatraemia. Additionally, Isomum contains energy-boosting ingredients, essential vitamins and minerals, and is suitable for gestational diabetics, vegans, and those concerned about their environmental impact.
As a midwife, I have seen first-hand the consequences of unbalanced hydration during labour. That’s why I founded Isomum to provide a solution that supports the health of both mothers and their babies. By understanding the importance of balanced hydration and electrolyte levels, we can help women avoid complications like hyponatraemia and ensure a safer, healthier labour experience.”
