As more mothers in Singapore become better aware of the benefits of breastmilk for their children, the breastfeeding trend in our country continues to rise.

Based on a study by market research firm Nielson, 9 in 10 mothers breastfed either fully or partially, for an average of 8.1 months in 2018, as compared to only 6.8 months in 2016.

However, more breastfeeding mothers are also turning to partial breastfeed. In the same study, mothers revealed that insufficient milk supply and the inconvenience of breastfeeding are the main reasons they introduce formula milk in their children’s diet.

Meanwhile, more mothers are now focused on a healthy diet to safeguard their children’s health. On average, 70% of mothers with infants shared that protecting their child from sickness is the top priority when it comes to choosing the right diet for their infants.

Different from healthy tingkat delivery services, ReLacto’s lactation meals and drinks are professionally planned by their in-house dietitian and award-winning chef to include lactogenic ingredients that improve the supply and nutritional quality of breast milk, as well as nourishing ingredients that encourage postpartum recovery.

By offering a convenient daily lunch and dinner catering service, ReLacto is committed to not only support breastfeeding mothers in producing high-quality breast milk for their children but also having more freedom and flexibility in their daily routine.

To further ensure the quality of their food, all meals at ReLacto are delivered to the customers’ doorsteps with sustainable thermal flasks and biodegradable packaging, packed in thermal bags to preserve their warmth and freshness.

At a glance, the caterer’s extensive menu features delectable, refreshing dishes that are focused on lactation and recovery, including Moroccan Chicken Stew, Black Pepper Wagyu Beef Cube, Grouper with Celery Sauce, and even plant-based delicacies such as Impossible Meat Lemak Rendang.
