PREGNACARE ORIGINAL PREGNANCY SUPPLEMENT

Expert nutrition for mother and baby

Worldwide studies have shown that additional nutrients such as folic acid and vitamin D are important before and during pregnancy. Pregnacare Original has been carefully developed to help safeguard dietary requirements, from the start of trying to conceive and throughout the whole of pregnancy.

More than folic acid
Formulated by Vitabiotics' experts with 19 important vitamins and minerals. With 400µg folic acid, the exact daily levels recommended by the UK Department of Health.

Recommended 10µg Vit.D
The UK Department of Health recommends all pregnant and breast-feeding women take a daily supplement containing 10µg vitamin D.

Trusted support for mums
Pregnacare  helps to support all round health and wellbeing, with folic acid which contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy. The unique formula also includes zinc which contributes to normal reproductive health.

Effective support without excessive levels
To protect your growing child, Pregnacare avoids excessive levels of iron and other nutrients. Pregnacare does not contain vitamin A, as high levels are not advised in pregnancy.
