J.,
As far as i know, Relacore is nothing more that a mixture of mega B vitamins with other normal vitaimns mixed in with it. Many time when you have been pregnant over the past 3-5 years your body will deplete itself from the B vitamins (B-6, B-11, B-12 etc.) and you will begin to feel its affect. B helps regulate the mood portion of the brain. When you feel better you are less likely to overeat due to stress or depression hence the weight loss that they marketed in the beginning of sales of Relacore. ( Belly Fat Reduced with Relacore) The stress fat is always help in the Belly area. So if you see a woman or man with a huge belly you can assume that they are living with a great deal of stress and no B to help them loose the belly fat.
You are wise to realize that your body was depleated from the vitamins necessary to function propertly in terms of activity level and moods. Once the body has built up a storehouse of the chemical seratonian that the b vitamins help make you will be back to your old self. Get enough sunlight as well to help your body make the seritonian. You should notice that you sleep better, have a better attitude about things, don't feel moody as ofter, have more energy to function through out your day and also you may find yourself getting back to enjoying outdoor activities.
Many women today do not eat properly and in that they loose many NEEDED vitamins to get their bodies to function properly. Also the food that used to be rich in nuitrients are now just empty food with nothing but man made chemicles and sugars in them.
You are on the right track, I would like to hear how you are doing after being on the suppliment for about 6 months. Sometimes it takes that long to build back up your system after having stress in your life. (Young children, babies, PG's and NO SLEEP!!!
Keep Mothering.
