Designs For Health Prenatal Pro™ Prenatal Pro™ provides optimal supplementation for pregnant women, lactating women, and women wishing to become pregnant. The earlier supplementation begins the better because women need adequate nutrient stores to meet the greater nutrient demands for a growing baby. This prenatal multivitamin contains Design For Health's proprietary NatureFolate™ blend of active isomer naturally-occurring folates in place of synthetic folic acid. The minerals chosen for Prenatal Pro™ are true chelates, which provide superior absorption compared to those found in standard prenatal vitamins. These minerals are dosed at levels to help achieve optimal results, such as: Calcium and magnesium – healthy bone formation Ferrochel chelated iron – most bioavailable on the market, non-constipating Significant levels of chelated zinc – to reduce risk of pre-term babies Iodine – deficiency in infancy can lead to learning disabilities Ingredients Serving Size: 4 Vegetarian Capsules Amount/Serving Vitamin A (as Mixed Carotenoids and Palmitate) 1500 mcg RAE Vitamin C (as Asorbic Acid) 400 mg Vitamin D (as Cholecalciferol) 25 mcg (1000 IU) Vitamin K (as Vitamin K1 Phytonadione) 120 mcg Thiamin (Vitamin B-1)(as Thiamin HCI) 1.4 mg Riboflavin (Vitamin B-2)(as Riboflavin-5-Phosphate) 1.6 mg Niacin (Vitamin B-3)(as Niacinamide) 18 mg NE Vitamin B-6 (as Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate) 2 mg Folate (as Quatrefolic® [6S]-5-methyltetrahydrofolate, glucosamine salt) 1360 mcg DFE Vitamin B-12 (as Methylcobalamin [MecobalActive®]) 2.8 mcg Biotin (as d-Biotin) 35 mcg Pantothenic Acid (as d-Calcium Pantothenate) 7 mg Calcium (as DimaCal® Di-Calcium Malate) 140 mg Iron (as Ferrochel® Ferrous Bisglycinate Chelate) 27 mg Iodine (as Potassium Iodide) 200 mcg Magnesium (as Di-Magnesium Malate) 80 mg Zinc (as Zinc Bisglycinate Chelate) 13 mg Selenium (as Selenium Glycinate Complex) 200 mcg Copper (as TRAACS® Copper Glycinate Chelate) 1.3 mg Manganese (as TRAACS® Manganese Bisglycinate Chelate) 2.6 mg Chromium (as TRAACS® Molybdenum Glycinate Chelate) 50 mcg Molybdenum (as TRAACS® Molybdenum Glycinate Chelate) 50 mcg Choline (as Choline Dihydrogen Citrate) 50 mg Vitamin E Isomers (as DeltaGold® delta and gamma tocotrienols) 15 mg Other Ingredients: Cellulose (capsule), microcrystalline cellulose, sunflower lecithin, vegetable stearate, silicon dioxide.

Prenatal Pro™ is the only prenatal multivitamin on the market to use NatureFolate™, a blend of natural folates, in place of synthetic folic acid. Prenatal Pro™ features mineral chelates with far superior absorption compared to minerals typically found in prenatal multivitamins. A daily serving of Prenatal Pro™ provides adequate amounts of calcium and magnesium for healthy bone and muscle development. The inclusion of healthy amounts of vitamins D and K allow for proper directing of calcium to hard tissues, such as bone and teeth, and not to the soft tissues. Ferrochel chelated iron not only has high bioavailability but also excellent tolerability. It does not cause constipation like so many iron sources do. Iodine is an important mineral for infants and an important inclusion to this formula, as research has shown that iodine deficiency in infancy can lead to learning disability and lowered achievement motivation. Prenatal Pro™ now provides 200 mcg of Iodine in each serving, the minimum level recommended during pregnancy and postpartum by the World Health Organization (WHO). Prenatal Pro™ is also designed to prevent the fatigue that is so common during pregnancy. Vitamin B6, found in Prenatal Pro™, is known to improve pregnancy nausea.
