It’s a nutritious, non-GMO blend fit for every mom and her precious child.
The story behind Nature's Prenatal®
For more than 100 years, expecting women have been adding nutrients to their diets to help their future offspring get a healthy start. During the 1960s, women were encouraged to consume yeast extract because it had lots of B vitamins that would help the developing fetus.
In 1998, the US Food and Drug Administration began requiring that folic acid (a synthetic form of folate) be added to certain flours, cereals and grain products as this nutrient is strongly associated with a reduced risk of fetal brain, spinal cord and neural tube defects. In fact, the CDC estimates that at least 1,300 babies are born each year without neural tube defects because their mothers got folate during pregnancy.
But shockingly, an estimated 40-50% of us may not efficiently convert folic acid into the form the body can use. Nature’s Sunshine wants to offer the most efficacious supplements available, so Nature’s Prenatal provides highly bioavailable methyl folate.
Vitamin B12 plays an important role in brain and neurological development. Methylcobalamin is a more natural form of this nutrient.
Ginger has been used in Asia for thousands of years. Traditionally, it helped with myriad complaints, including indigestion, gas, nausea, vomiting, joint discomfort, aches and cramps.
