Natalben Supra

During pregnancy there is an increased need for vitamins, minerals and trace elements. During this period in life, special attention should be paid to diet, as the food eaten by the mother is the baby's main source of nutrients.

Main components of Natalben Supra

• Folic acid (vitamin B9) and vitamin B12: Folic acid acts right from the beginning of pregnancy, so supplements are recommended for pregnant women. This vitamin contributes to the growth of maternal tissues during pregnancy. A supplementary intake of folic acid increases the maternal folate level. Low maternal folate is a risk factor for neural tube defects in the developing foetus. This beneficial effect is reported to be obtained with an additional daily intake of 400 μg for at least one month before conception and up to three months afterwards. In addition, folic acid and vitamin B12 contribute to the process of cell division.
• Iodine: During pregnancy, iodine requirements increase, as this element helps develop normal cognitive function.
• Iron: During pregnancy there is a considerable increase in iron requirements to ensure the mother's reserves and an adequate supply for the child. It is a very important mineral, as it contributes to the normal transport of oxygen in the body and to the process of cell division.
• Vitamin D: Adequate levels of vitamin D are required in the mother during pregnancy for calcium to be properly absorbed. Vitamin D is also necessary for normal bone growth and development in children.
• Omega-3 fatty acids: Maternal intake of DHA contributes to the normal development of the baby’s brain and eyes. Pregnant women need to be aware that this beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 200 mg of DHA and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA).
