PRENATAL MULTI+

Overview
PRENATAL MULTI+ provides a comprehensive blend of vitamins and minerals intended to support maternal and fetal health during pregnancy. It includes methylated forms of folate and B12, which are advantageous for individuals with specific genetic variations. However, it contains low doses of iron, magnesium and calcium relative to established recommendations. It contains unnecessary ingredients such as chamomile and enzymes which aren't bad, just not necessary in a prenatal.
The Good
Provides a broad spectrum of essential vitamins and minerals necessary for prenatal health.
Includes methylated folate (Quatrefolic) and B12 (methylcobalamin, adenosylcobalamin) for enhanced bioavailability, especially beneficial for individuals with MTHFR gene mutations.
Offers a plant-based source of Vitamin D (vegan cholecalciferol), suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
The Bad
Iron Dose is low: Contains only 1.8mg of iron, which may not be sufficient for pregnant women who commonly require higher doses to prevent anemia.
Magnesium Dose is low: The dose of magnesium is only 15mg, which provides minimal benefit, as pregnant women often require much higher doses of magnesium.
Zinc May Be Too High: The zinc is dosed at 35mg which may be excessive and could potentially interfere with copper absorption if taken long-term.
Is it for you?
Best For: Pregnant women, women planning pregnancy, breastfeeding mothers
Skip If: You have specific allergies to listed ingredients or are advised against by a healthcare professional.
