Folate is one of the most important vitamins for a successful pregnancy. Folic acid insufficiency during pregnancy can have a detrimental impact on fetal growth. Fortunately, each vegetarian capsule of Basic Prenatal delivers active forms of folate (5-MTHF) and vitamin B12 ( methylcobalamin) in an absorbable dose.

Iron is also beneficial for expectant moms, although it can sometimes cause constipation; as a result, this product contains iron bisglycinate, which is easier on the stomach while still meeting the expectant mother's unique demands.

A woman's nutritional needs increase throughout pregnancy and after giving birth because she requires more calories and nutrients to support both herself and a growing baby. However, certain women have trouble consuming enough calories and nutrition from meals, especially if they are suffering from morning sickness. The good news is that vitamins B6, C, and K can assist with those distressing symptoms.

Prenatal vitamins and minerals, which are frequently required during pregnancy, are often difficult for women to digest. It is for this reason that Thorne Research does not include high quantities of the vitamins and minerals in Basic Prenatal that are more likely to be harsh on the stomach in its formulations.

If you are pregnant or thinking about getting pregnant, talk with your primary care physician about supplementation for you and your baby.
