More about Prenatal+DHA:
The structural fatty acid DHA is crucial for proper eye and central nervous system development, impacting some of the most significant brain functions including vision, cognition and motor function. While DHA is important for everyone, it can be especially vital for babies. Fetuses get DHA while in the womb, and babies could get DHA through their mother’s milk. But, many women do not have enough DHA for themselves, let alone enough DHA for two. Prenatal supplements that are fortified with DHA increase the level of DHA in expectant and new mothers so that both mother and baby can benefit.
Another crucial component of Prenatal+DHA is the nutrient folate. Unlike folic acid, the source Biofolate® (L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate Calcium) is body ready, which means it requires no complex conversion and eliminates the risk of unmetabolized folic acid. This naturally occurring form of folate is required by as many as 50% of pregnant women due to an MTFHR gene mutation, as these women either lack the enzymes needed to receive any benefit from synthetic folic acid or cannot fully process synthetic folic acid at RDA or higher dose levels.

FAQs
What are the benefits of DHA in pregnancy?
DHA has been proven to be absolutely essential during the critical periods of pregnancy and early infancy. Maternal DHA levels directly impact the developing central nervous system and the cognition (mental development) of the developing baby, as well as the vision and motor function. Research also shows that DHA taken in pregnancy supports the mother as well.
Why did you include Chromium in Prenatal +DHA?
We included chromium in Prenatal +DHA to help support healthy blood sugar levels, which is always beneficial but is even more important during pregnancy.
What is the difference between the folate, Biofolate® (L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate Calcium) in Prenatal +DHA versus standard folic acid found in most prenatal supplements?
The naturally occurring, metabolically active form of methylfolate found in Prenatal +DHA is the most stable and bioactive form of folate. Methylated folate is body ready, which means it requires no complex conversion and eliminates the risk of un-metabolized folic acid. This naturally occurring form of folate is required by a large percentage of women due to an MTFHR gene mutation, as these women either lack the enzymes needed to receive any benefit from synthetic folic acid, or cannot fully process synthetic folic acid at RDA or higher dose levels.
Can I take both of the softgels at once? I find that if I don't take them both the same time I forget the second dose.
Yes, you can take both softgels at the same time. That is definitely better than taking only 1 a day. However, for maximum absorption it's recommended to take the softgels separately with at least a 3-hour space between them.
Can I take this Prenatal supplement while breastfeeding?
Absolutely. When one is breastfeeding, the baby is receiving all the nutrients it needs, often depleting the mother. Therefore, it is crucial for breastfeeding mothers to take a quality supplement such as Prenatal +DHA300 to provide both mother and baby with the nutrients needed.
Does the Prenatal +DHA 300 contain synthetic folic acid or natural folate?
Zahler Prenatal +DHA 300 contains only methylated folate, no synthetic folic acid at all.
What is the source of the Kosher Gelatin in the Prenatal +DHA300?
The Zahler Prenatal +DHA300 contains Kosher bovine gelatin.
