You need to support with quality vitamin and nutritional supplements to experience a healthy pregnancy and to bring forth a baby in the best possible state of health.Your body needs to absorb these supplements but unfortunately not all vitamin and nutritional supplements for pregnancy are able to do this, also a multivitamin and mineral supplement may not be suitable during pregnancy as it may not contain the correct amount of the nutrients needed.

We have carefully sourced the market and selected the highest quality supplements that work, and are specially designed for pregnancy. These supplements contain all the essential nutrients needed during pregnancy and these include B vitamins, folic acid, Vitamin D, safe form of Vitamin A (beta-carotene).

We also recommend fish oils which are free from pollutants and Mercury. Studies have shown that Omega 3 fish oils, specifically DHA are necessary for the development of the eye and the brain.

PROBIOTICS is another supplement essential during pregnancy and breastfeeding and is believed to promote the immune system of your baby. Recent studies have shown that probiotics taken during pregnancy and breastfeeding can help reduce allergies and lactose intollerance on your baby.

Foods to avoid during pregnancy:

Soft mould-ripened or blue cheese
Raw or uncooked eggsLiver, liver sausage, pate
Cured meats such as Parma ham and salami
Raw or undercooked meats and poultry
Raw fish, oysters, shellfish.

If eating Sushi, make sure the fish has been frozen.  Freezing and cooking kills the parasites.Fish although is good for you, unfortunately can contain environmental pollutants that can harm your baby’s developing nervous system. It is best therefore to substitute with fish oil supplements that are free from these toxins.

Cod Liver oil because it contains Retinol form of Vitamin A.
Vitamin A as in Retinol.
