✛ Why it's used

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’s Basic Prenatal at each stagePre-ConceptionDaily 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 TrimesterFolate 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 TrimesterBasic Prenatal contains the well-absorbed and well-researched iron bisglycinate to meet a pregnant woman’s increased need for iron.

Third TrimesterThis multi provides the extra nutrients needed for continued healthy fetal development and to prepare mom and baby for birth.*.After Pregnancy through NursingBasic Prenatal provides nutritional support for increased demand for calcium and vitamin D in the diet.

⚠ Key cautions

Cautions: iron-containing products are a leading cause of fatal accidental poisoning in children under 6 — keep out of reach of children. Vitamin C can cause diarrhea in some individuals at higher doses. Prescription interactions: Vitamin K (100mcg) can reduce the effect of warfarin/other anticoagulants — concurrent use should be avoided or closely monitored. 5-MTHF is not recommended concurrent with methotrexate cancer therapy (interferes with anti-neoplastic activity), though this folate source has not been shown to interfere with methotrexate's anti-inflammatory use for psoriasis/rheumatoid arthritis. Iodine (150mcg) may occasionally cause allergic reactions and is relevant in thyroid disorders. Priority: High — multi-nutrient formula with iron at the adult UL and a documented anticoagulant interaction, intended for a population (pregnancy/lactation) that should always be practitioner-supervised.
