ANDREW LESSMAN Prenatal Essentials 360 Capsules - Complete Antenatal Vitamins with Methylfolate and Iron

Essential Nutrients for Mother and Child

Discover Andrew Lessman Prenatal — This formula provides a comprehensive range of vitamins and minerals to support maternal health and foetal development. Key nutrients include:

• Folate (as methylfolate): Supports the healthy development of the baby's neural tube. Unlike synthetic folic acid, methylfolate is the bioactive form directly usable by the body.
• Iron: Contributes to the formation of red blood cells and may help maintain healthy energy levels during pregnancy.
• Vitamin D: Promotes calcium absorption and supports bone health for both mother and baby.
• DHA precursor (from alpha-linolenic acid): While not direct DHA, the formula includes nutrients that may support overall brain and eye development.
• Iodine: Supports thyroid function, important for cognitive development.
• Calcium and Magnesium: Contribute to bone health and muscle function.
• Zinc, Selenium, and Copper: Provide antioxidant support and contribute to immune function.
• Lutein, Lycopene, and Zeaxanthin: Antioxidants that may support eye health.

Each serving provides 100% or more of the Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) for most key nutrients, tailored for pregnancy.

Why Methylfolate Matters

Many antenatal vitamins contain synthetic folic acid, which must be converted into the active form (methylfolate) by the body. ANDREW LESSMAN Prenatal Essentials uses methylfolate directly, ensuring that even women with MTHFR gene variations can utilise this essential B vitamin. This may be particularly beneficial for supporting neural tube development in early pregnancy.

Pregnancy can bring digestive sensitivity. This antenatal formula is designed to be gentle. The capsules are small and easy to swallow, and the non-acidic formula may reduce the likelihood of nausea often associated with other supplements. Additionally, the formula contains no added binders, fillers, lubricants, or preservatives, making it a clean choice for expectant mothers.
