Pregnacare 30's

From pre-conception, throughout pregnancy and lactation Pregnacare® is the most popular and trusted supplement for mothers-to-be to safeguard their diet, from those who are planning for pregnancy or already pregnant, right through to the end of breast-feeding. A scientifically developed formulation of 17 important vitamins and minerals, Pregnacare® contains vitamin B12, and also includes folic acid at exactly the levels recommended for the development of the unborn baby. Other essential vitamins and minerals shown to help maintain a healthy pregnancy are also included.

The Department of Health recommends women planning a baby should take a supplement containing 400 mcg of folic acid from the start of trying to conceive until the 12th week of pregnancy. This is the exact amount of folic acid contained in Pregnacare®, but folic acid is also important outside the first twelve weeks. As well as helping to maintain normal healthy development of the neural tube and nervous system, folic acid is required for foetal growth and is vital for cell division from a single cell to a fully developed baby. Pregnacare® is therefore recommended throughout pregnancy, not just the first 12 weeks.

Pregnacare Cream 100ml

Pregnacare® Cream is a new massage cream, specially formulated to care for stretching skin during pregnancy.
Stretch marks can appear anywhere on the body where the skin has been stretched. They occur when the lower layer of the skin containing collagen and elastin, which give our skin its elasticity, becomes damaged by a rapid weight loss or weight gain, such as in pregnancy. The purple appearance of the stretch mark on the skin is caused by the small blood vessels beneath the surface, which become more visible with stretching.

Pregnacare Plus

September 2006: Vitabiotics have launched an advanced new pregnancy supplement to help safeguard dietary requirements from pre-conception, during pregnancy and through to the end of breast-feeding. Pregnacare Plus, a new addition to the Pregnacare range, combines the original best selling Pregnacare tablet with a unique Omega-3 DHA capsule to provide even greater support.

The benefits of taking Omega-3 DHA during pregnancy have been well researched as the growing baby relies solely on supplies from the mother. DHA plays an essential role in the healthy development of the brain, nervous system and eyes in the foetus and newborn infant.
The Omega-3 capsule in Pregnacare Plus contains 300mg of DHA, the exact level recommended by international experts and is sourced from the purest pharmaceutical grade fish oil that is free of vitamin A and produced in Norway.
