What are prenatal vitamins?

Prenatal vitamins are supplements designed to meet specific nutritional needs during pregnancy and lactation. While a balanced diet is essential, certain nutrients such as folic acid, iron, calcium, and DHA are especially important at this stage. This multivitamin from Protocol for Life Balance offers a combination of key nutrients, including 250 mg of DHA per dose, along with calcium, copper, vitamin B12, and vitamin C, in a gentle and easy-to-digest formula.

Benefits backed by EFSA

The nutrients present in this supplement have health claims approved by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). DHA contributes to the normal brain and eye development of the fetus and breastfed infants when the mother consumes a daily amount of at least 200 mg in addition to the recommended daily intake of omega-3 fatty acids for adults. Calcium contributes to the normal bone development of the child. Vitamin C and copper contribute to the protection of cells against oxidative damage and to the normal functioning of the immune system. Vitamin B12 contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells.

Key ingredients and their functions

Each daily dose (3 softgels) provides 250 mg of DHA from fish oil, an essential omega-3 fatty acid for the baby's visual and neurological development. Calcium contributes to maternal and fetal bone health. Copper participates in the formation of connective tissues and in iron metabolism. Vitamin B12 is essential for energy production and DNA synthesis. Vitamin C promotes iron absorption and strengthens natural defenses. In addition, this product is Halal and dairy-free, suitable for people with food sensitivities.
