Maternal intake of DHA contributes to the normal brain & eye development of the foetus¹
Even great nutritional care for mother & baby
Pregnacare® Plus combines the original Pregnacare® tablet formula, the leading supplement in pregnancy care, with high quality omega-3 (300mg DHA) capsules, in a convenient 2-in-1 pack, for use throughout pregnancy.
Prenacare® multi-nutrient tablets
Each tablet provides a wide range of essential vitamins and minerals including the exact recommended levels of 400µg folic acid and 10µg vitamin D.
Supplement folic acid² intake increases maternal folate status. Low maternal folate status is a risk factor in the development of neutral tube defects in the developing foetus.
- Moderate iron and vitamins B6 and B12 contribute to normal red blood cell formation.
- Nutritional tablets produced in Britain to high GMP³ quality.
High purity Omega-3 capsules
Research increasingly shows the importance of essential fatty acids such as DHA in the development of babies & infants.
Maternal intake of DHA contributes to the normal development of the eye and brain of the foetus.¹
- Each capsule provides 300mg DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid), a level recommended by many international experts⁴ (ISSFAL).
- Fish oil produced to high GMP³ quality.
- Certified for sustainability by Friend of The Sea.
1. A beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 200mg DHA in addition to the recommended daily intake of omega-3 fatty acids for adults.
2. The beneficial effect is obtained with a supplemental folic acid daily intake of 400µg for at least one month before and up to three months after conception. This product is designed for women of child-bearing age.
3. Good Manufacturing Practice.
