Pre-conception, pregnancy, and nursing are critical times to optimize a mother’s health and nutrition, which is important for both for mother and baby. Overall nutritional and caloric needs greatly increase during this time. However, it is often difficult for a woman to fulfill her daily nutrient needs through diet alone.
Thorne’s Basic Prenatal is specifically formulated with the special needs of conception, pregnancy, and breastfeeding in mind. The formula contains well-absorbed, tissue-ready vitamins and minerals that are gentle on the stomach and non-constipating. Ingredients include Folate which is widely considered a safer bet for prenatal supplements due to it being a natural form of vitamin B9.
