Complete Prenatal Multi-Vitamin-Mineral

No colors No additives No stomach upset

Prenatal Essentials is a uniquely pure, ultra-mild and comprehensive multi-vitamin-mineral formula specifically designed for use before, during and after pregnancy. It is an extremely important formula, since there is no time when vitamins and minerals are more vital to human health than before, during and after pregnancy; not merely for the health of the mother, but for the baby who depends on the mother for their entire nutrient intake. It is a medical fact that the vitamins and minerals a mother consumes (or fails to consume) will have a direct impact on the current and future health, growth and development of her baby. More than just a basic multivitamin, Prenatal Essentials delivers higher levels of the key nutrients required for the healthy development of your baby. Moreover, unlike typical prenatal vitamins, Prenatal Essentials is uniquely additive-free and does not expose you or your baby to unwanted colors, preservatives or chemical additives. We also recognize that among the many changes experienced during pregnancy, perhaps one of the most challenging is a sensitive stomach and digestive system. As a result, Prenatal Essentials comes in small, easy-to-swallow capsules that are gentle even to the most sensitive stomach. In short, there is no prenatal vitamin that better considers the needs of both mother and baby than our Prenatal Essentials.

Contains no additives or common allergens
