Building immunity from the very beginning In recent years, growing attention has been given to the importance of strong immunity, the foundations of which are laid in the very first weeks and months of life. During pregnancy and birth, the mother is a key source of beneficial microbes. After birth, close skin contact with loved ones continues to support the development of your baby’s immune system. For the body’s defence system to develop properly, it needs sufficient exposure to the diverse microbes found in nature. Research shows that regular contact with natural microbial environments in early life is linked to a lower risk of autoimmune conditions such as allergies, asthma and type 1 diabetes. In urban environments, however, this connection to nature’s microbial diversity can remain limited. One way to support natural exposure is through our Metsä collection. These garments are enhanced with Re-Connecting Nature™ extract, derived from the rich microbial diversity of Finnish nature. Through skin contact, these beneficial microbes may help support the development of the immune system. Silk wool bodysuits and bonnets from the Metsä collection are suitable from around two months of age. For best results, we recommend frequent use and gentle care, such as airing regularly, to extend the time between washes.
