Key Ingredients and their Functions

Folate: naturally present from organic lemon peel, with more than 100% of the daily value. Folate contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy. Iron: 27 mg per serving, important for normal red blood cell and hemoglobin formation, helping to transport oxygen. Vegan Vitamin D3: derived from lichen, promotes calcium absorption and maintenance of normal bones. Vitamins B6 and B12: support energy metabolism and nervous system function. Additionally, it includes a complex of organic fruits and vegetables such as apple, cranberry, spinach, and ginger, which provide additional phytonutrients.

How does this multivitamin support energy metabolism?

B vitamins, such as B6 and B12, contribute to normal energy metabolism, helping convert food into usable energy. Iron also participates in oxygen transport, which can help reduce fatigue during pregnancy. This product is formulated to provide these nutrients in adequate amounts for the increased demands of gestation. Each three-tablet dose offers a balanced combination that promotes daily vitality.

When and how to take them?

It is recommended to take 3 tablets daily with food, preferably with a meal to optimize absorption. You can start taking it from when you plan to become pregnant and continue throughout breastfeeding. Consult your healthcare professional to determine the appropriate dosage for your particular case and ensure it meets your individual needs.
