Fertility Vitamins and Prenatal Vitamins

Why It's Important to Choose a High-Quality Multi Vitamin for Preconception and Pregnancy.

Many women are either confused about what to look for in fertility vitamins or they don't see the need to take vitamins at all.

Most women don't get the vitamins and minerals needed from the food they eat from day to day. We would have to eat a whole lot of fruits, vegetables, meats, and grains in order to get the balance of vitamins and minerals that our bodies need to thrive and be our healthiest.

Women's vitamins are especially important when a woman is trying to conceive and during pregnancy. These are specifically called prenatal vitamins .

Prenatal vitamins supply a rich assortment of vitamins and minerals to help a woman conceive and bring forth a healthy baby. These vitamins and minerals are necessary to help keep our hormones balanced and our nervous system running smoothly as well as keeping all our organs functioning optimally.

So what do you look for? What are the qualities of the best fertility vitamins and prenatal vitamin supplements?

Well, I'm no expert. But I can tell you what I took that helped me to be more fertile and energetic and have a trouble-free pregnancy.

I looked into several prenatal vitamins before choosing what I believe to be the best multi vitamin supplement that's all natural and made from organically-grown plant compounds. The other prenatal vitamins were synthetically made with artificial coloring.

Here's the multi vitamin I took prenatally (and still take), which I highly recommend. Check it out.

I also ate lots of fruits and vegetables and drank a lot of purified water. (See my Preconception page for more on this.)

Make sure your multivitamin has at least 400 mcg of folic acid (I took 800 mcg daily) in order to prevent neural tube defects in your unborn baby. This neural tube develops within the first month of life, so it's important to get enough folic acid before you get pregnant.

* Remember that even the best multi vitamin supplement won't replace eating a healthy diet with lots of fruits, vegetables, dairy products, grains, meats, and drinking lots of purified water. Both a healthy diet and a great multi vitamin supplement are needed to increase your fertility and ensure that you have a healthy pregnancy.

Nettle contains lots of calcium and iron to nourish your body during preconception and pregnancy.
