Basic Prenatal

Pre-conception, pregnancy, and nursing are critical times to optimize a mother's health and nutrition – for both mom and baby.

At a time when overall nutritional and caloric needs greatly increase, it is often difficult for a woman to fulfill her daily nutrient needs through diet alone, particularly during the first trimester when morning sickness can prevail.

Because better absorption means less stomach upset and constipation, Basic Prenatal is formulated with the most bioavailable nutrients available that are gentle on the stomach. In addition, Basic Prenatal is made without the additives and coatings found in other prenatal supplements.

Benefits of Thorne Basic Prenatal at each stage

Pre-Conception

• Daily multi-vitamin/mineral support for a woman of childbearing age.
• Provides beneficial nutrients like active folate that are important from the moment of conception.

First Trimester

• Folate facilitates healthy brain and spinal cord development.* Basic Prenatal includes the bioactive form of folate – 5-MTHF.
• Choline supports development of baby’s brain and nervous system.*

Second Trimester

• Basic Prenatal contains the well-absorbed and well-researched iron bisglycinate to meet a pregnant woman’s increased need for iron. 

Third Trimester

• This multi provides the extra nutrients needed for continued healthy fetal development and to prepare mom and baby for birth.* 

After Pregnancy through Nursing

• Basic Prenatal provides nutritional support for increased demand for calcium and vitamin D in the diet.

Warnings:

ALLERGY WARNING

This product is contraindicated in an individual with a history of hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients.

Iodine may occasionally cause an allergic reaction in some individuals.

PREGNANCY

If pregnant, consult your health-care practitioner before using this product.

INTERACTIONS

As vitamin K interferes with the effect of anticoagulant drugs (like Coumadin), the concurrent use of these agents should be avoided.

5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) supplementation is not recommended concurrent with methotrexate cancer therapy, as it can interfere with methotrexate's anti-neoplastic activity; however, this folate source has not been shown to interfere with the anti-inflammatory activity of methotrexate. An individual taking methotrexate for psoriasis or rheumatoid arthritis can safely take a supplement containing folate.

ADDITIONAL WARNINGS

Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under six. Keep this product out of reach of children. In case of accidental overdose, call a doctor or poison control center immediately.

Vitamin C can cause diarrhea in some individuals in large doses, which can vary from person to person and resolves when the amount is reduced.
