Product Description: Product Supplement for Pregnant and Breastfeeding Women Women's Health Basic Health Gluten FreeBasic Prenatal is designed to be gentle and effective for women who are pregnant, lactating or trying to become pregnant. Contains no additives found in typical prenatal supplements. Supplementing with a multivitamin or mineral formula before, during, and after pregnancy and while breastfeeding may benefit the health of the baby and mother. For example, supplementing with folic acid may reduce the risk of birth defects in your baby's brain or spinal cord. Thorne's Basic Prenatal provides active folate (5-MTHF) and vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin) for immediate use in body tissues. Basic Prenatal also contains highly absorbable iron bisglycinate, which helps meet the iron needs of pregnant women while comforting the stomach and preventing constipation. Several Basic Prenatal ingredients (vitamin C, vitamin B6, and vitamin K) have been shown to help with “morning sickness.” Basic Prenatal is made with the purest ingredients possible and does not contain any additives or coatings found in typical prenatal supplements.Pregnancy is a critical time for optimizing a woman's health and nutrition and is important for both mother and baby.
