Pregnacare Original

Pregnacare Original is a scientifically developed formula especially made for pregnant women or women planning for pregnancy that became popular for the best prenatal health care.

Pregnacare Original contains 19 important minerals and vitamins with safe optimum levels to support maternal health and baby development.

According to The UK Department of Health, women planning for pregnancy should take folic acid supplements (400 microgram) when thinking of conceiving (for at least one month before conception) and after conceiving until delivery to support fetus health and avoid developing neural tube defects and continuing taking folic acid beyond 12 weeks can also support maternal tissue growth during pregnancy.

Pregnacare Original contains the exact levels of folic acid recommended to increase maternal folate status plus 10 micrograms of vitamin D recommended also by The UK Department of Health for pregnant and breastfeeding women, with vitamin B12 supporting normal red blood cell formation and cell division process and so many required nutrients within sensible, safe, correct and carefully balanced levels.

Ensuring the correct consumption of vitamins and minerals through pregnancy and after it is very important according to many studies, so Pregnacare Original provides all supporting nutrients like iron, vitamin B2, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 in safe levels without any excess of high doses of iron that is not recommended and may be found in many prenatal iron supplements.

Pregnacare Original is not just for pregnant women but also for the period before conception to establish stores of nutrients like iron, folic acid, vitamin B12 and zinc supporting normal fertility and reproduction to prepare the mother's body for pregnancy’s additional demands and baby development after conceiving.

You can start taking Pregnacare Original at any time during pregnancy or before it to ensure good nutritional intake throughout the pregnancy period.
