Pregnant Fast

Vegetarian support for maternal and fetal development Helps reduce the risk of neural tube defects when taken daily before pregnancy and during early pregnancy Helps prevent iron deficiency anemia Calcium intake, combined with adequate vitamin D, a healthy diet, and regular exercise, may reduce the risk of osteoporosis. Provides 999 IU of vitamin D and 999 mcg of folic acid per daily dose Helps prevent deficiencies of calcium, chromium, copper, iodine, magnesium, selenium, zinc, biotin, folic acid, vitamin A, vitamin B12, vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin E, and vitamin K Since nutrient and energy needs vary during pregnancy, Pregna Vite provides vitamins and minerals appropriate for maternal and fetal health. Some 20 to 30% of women experience vitamin deficiencies during pregnancy. Vitamins and minerals, including B vitamins, magnesium, and zinc, play a role in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, and their deficiency is associated with impaired fetal growth and development. Vegetarian diets tend to provide insufficient levels of vitamin B12, which can lead to red blood cell malformation. Maternal iron levels affect iron stores for fetal development and are needed for hemoglobin production; Pregna Vite helps prevent iron deficiency anemia. Calcium requirements also increase during pregnancy, leading to increased calcium absorption from the intestine and its mobilization to bones. Vitamin D is used to absorb and utilize calcium and phosphorus for normal bone mineralization. Vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy can lead to poor fetal bone development or osteomalacia, although 600 IU of vitamin D daily helps maximize bone health in pregnant adults. Daily supplementation with 800 mcg of folic acid during the first trimester may reduce the risk of neural tube defects by almost 70%.
