Important Information:

This product contains Vitamin A at a dosage that is considered to be at a safe level for pregnant women. Iron is not included in this product, as iron levels during pregnancy should be medically assessed to determine requirements. Women should not consume more than 10,000 IU of Vitamin A per day during pregnancy as amounts above this level have been shown (especially during the first seven weeks of pregnancy) to cause birth defects in approximately 2% of pregnant women. It may be prudent to ensure that daily Vitamin A consumption does not exceed 5,000 IU per day during pregnancy.

How it works:

For women, pregnancy is a time of hormonal change and careful nutritional requirements. Pregnancy itself (being the phase when mother carries the developing foetus) is divided into three trimesters. In the pre-conception and first trimester phases, correct hormone levels are critical to the success of conception and to the prevention of first trimester miscarriage. Later on, in the second and third trimesters and post natal period, nutritional and hormonal status are critical to a successful pregnancy outcome. Each phase of pregnancy will exhibit a different nutritional requirement and it is important for those nutrients to be available. Lack of certain mineral nutrients can impact negatively on both mother and baby. For the developing foetus, folic acid is essential for healthy development. New Zealand soils are deficient in some nutrients that are known to support a healthy pregnancy. It is important that all women planning to become pregnant, take the correct complement of nutrients that will support and assist them through each phase of their pregnancy. Nutrients are known to be passed from mother to baby through breast milk and so nutritional replacement is equally as important for breast feeding mothers. Clinicians PregaVit is a research-based nutritional formula for pre-conception, pregnancy, post-natal and neonatal health.
