Important micronutrients for prenatal supplementation
Planning to have a child is an especially emotional and exciting experience. But even if you don’t conceive right away, try not to put yourself under too much pressure. It is a good idea to provide your body with the right nutrients, though. A balanced diet and taking important micronutrients can support female fertility and therefore improve the chances of pregnancy.
The best preparation for having a baby
As a varied and balanced diet can increase the likelihood of pregnancy, it is worth taking a look at the micronutrients that can have a beneficial effect on fertility and cell division. For example, zinc supports normal fertility and reproduction. Zinc and vitamin D also have a role in the process of cell division. Orthomol Natal pre is a micronutrient combination for women who are planning to have a child and provides you with support from the very beginning.
Nutritional characteristics
1Important micronutrients for prenatal supplementation
Zinc contributes to normal fertility and reproduction.
Taking additional folic acid as a supplement increases folate levels in pregnant women. A low folate level exposes pregnant women to the risk of their foetus developing a neural tube defect. The positive effect is noticeable with a supplementary daily uptake of 400 µg folic acid over a period of at least one month prior to conception and up to three months afterwards (target group: women of childbearing age).
Zinc, vitamin D, vitamin B12 and folic acid have a role in the process of cell division.
Vitamin B6, vitamin B12, vitamin D, folic acid and zinc contribute to the normal function of the immune system.
Vitamin B6, vitamin B12 and folic acid contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
