Folio basic DHA 2 is a combination of specifically selected vitamins and iodine as well as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA for short) as a sensible supplement from the 13th week of pregnancy until the end of breastfeeding. In addition to folic acid, it also contains L-methylfolate - the bioactive form of folic acid, which is immediately available to the body without prior conversion. Folic acid contributes to the growth of maternal tissue during pregnancy. DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function.

Folic acid is a particularly important vitamin for pregnancy, as it is necessary for cell division and for the growth of maternal tissue during pregnancy, among other things. A sufficiently high folic acid level is also essential for the closure of the embryonic neural tube, which later forms the child's central nervous system (i.e. brain and spinal cord)^.1
