What Prenatal Vitamins Are Best?

There is a lot of excitement, anticipation, and nerves at the beginning of your pregnancy journey –  especially for first-time moms. However, pregnancy comes with an immense amount of social pressure to behave “perfectly.” You have a thousand different sources telling you that you have to eat certain foods, exercise in a precise way, and even what kind of music you should listen to. The truth is that each pregnancy is different, and what’s best for you is between you and your OBGYN. One thing that almost all pregnancy professionals agree on, however, is that moms should take high-quality prenatal vitamins before and during pregnancy.

Prenatal Vitamins for All Moms

When searching for the best prenatal vitamins, what do you look for? The search can be overwhelming when you consider what vitamins and minerals need to be present, how these nutrients are sourced, and if you have any dietary restrictions. 

Vegan Life Nutrition has developed a Prenatal Focus Bundle built for moms of all lifestyles. While Vegan Life Nutrition addressed some nutritional gaps found in vegan diets, this product was created so that all women who are trying to conceive or are pregnant have a well-rounded prenatal vitamin that not only meets their own essential nutrient needs but also provides nutritional support for their baby. 

President and CEO of Vegan Life Nutrition’s parent company, The GHT Companies, Jim Rex, says, “We developed this product based on the guidance of fertility specialists to deliver a comprehensive prenatal and postnatal program.” 

Essential Vitamins Before and During Pregnancy

To take the guesswork out of your search for the best prenatal supplements, The American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology(ACOG) has a list of which vitamins and minerals are necessary and recommended for prenatal supplements. The Prenatal Focus Bundle has over 20 vitamins and minerals, and here are some of the highlights: 

Folate

Folate is the natural form of folic acid and can be found in leafy green foods. You should consume 400 micrograms of folate every day before you are pregnant until 12 weeks into the pregnancy. 

Choline

Choline has numerous benefits for the baby, including its integral role in cell structure, DNA synthesis, and supporting a healthy nervous system. 

Calcium

Like most nutrients that you consume while pregnant, Calcium will go to your baby first, whether you supplement it or not. If you’re not replacing what you’re giving away, you could end up with symptoms of calcium deficiency. Calcium supports both your and your baby’s heart, muscles, nerves, bones/bone development, and hormones.

Vitamin D

Vitamin D works to regulate the amount of Calcium and phosphate in the body, which are needed to keep bones, teeth, and muscles healthy. It’s recommended that you consume at least 10 micrograms of vitamin D each day, especially if you are pregnant during winter months or aren’t able to spend time in the sun regularly.
