1 x Velnatal® baby planning soft capsules + 1 x free cuddle cloth, 30 ST

Velnatal® Babyplanung soft capsules are a dietary supplement with vitamins, minerals and trace elements for a comprehensive supply of micronutrients when planning a pregnancy.

The ingredients of Velnatal® Babyplanung have been carefully selected to provide you with the best possible support on your path to pregnancy. The combination of trace elements, vitamins and fatty acids prepares the body for pregnancy. It contains folic acid, among other things, because an adequate supply of folate is particularly important even before pregnancy.

What does Velnatal® Baby Planning contain and what is it used for?

• Folic acid/folate: Also known as vitamin B9, it is important for cell division and maternal tissue growth, especially in the early stages of pregnancy. A low folate level is considered a risk factor for the development of a neural tube defect in the growing foetus. For this reason, women who wish to have children are recommended to take 400 µg folic acid daily at least 1 month before and up to 3 months after conception. The development of a neural tube defect is caused by several risk factors; changing one of these risk factors may or may not have a positive effect. Ouatrefolic®' is a bioactive folate active ingredient, the glucosamine salt of (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF glucosamine), which is particularly bioavailable.
• DHA: Is a polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid. This is a polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid. The mother's intake of DHA contributes to normal brain and eye development in the foetus and breastfed infant. The positive effect occurs when 200 mg DHA is taken daily in addition to the recommended daily dose of omega-3 fatty acids for adults (250 mg DHA and EPA). The DHA used in Velnatal® Baby Planning is obtained from algae grown in specialised and strictly controlled facilities. Algae DHA is neutral in flavour.
• Selenium: Is an essential trace element that is involved in many reactions in the body. It is a component of antioxidant enzymes and is therefore important for protecting cells from oxidative stress caused by free radicals. Other selenium-dependent enzymes regulate the immune system and thyroid function or contribute to the maintenance of normal hair and nails.
• Zinc: Is a vital trace element. It is a component of numerous enzymes and proteins and is essential for a variety of reactions in the body. Zinc contributes, for example, to normal cognitive function, normal fertility, normal reproduction and normal protein synthesis. Zinc is also involved in cell division and various metabolic processes.
• Iodine: is essential for the production of thyroid hormones and for normal thyroid function. Iodine also contributes to normal energy metabolism and normal functioning of the nervous system. For adults (25-51 years), the iodine intake recommended by the German Nutrition Society is 200 µg per day. Due to an increased requirement, 230 µg per day is recommended for pregnant women and 260 µg per day for breastfeeding mothers. If you have thyroid disease, you should consult your doctor.
• Vitamin D: Is a fat-soluble vitamin that can be absorbed from food or produced by the body itself through sun exposure. Vitamin D contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system and the maintenance of normal bones. Vitamin D also has an influence on muscle function and contributes to the normal absorption/utilisation of calcium and phosphorus.
• B vitamins: Are a water-soluble group of vitamins. Vitamin B6 contributes to normal energy, protein and glycogen metabolism, to the regulation of hormone activity and to the normal function of the nervous and immune systems. Vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy and homocysteine metabolism and normal function of the nervous and immune systems as well as to the formation of red blood cells.
