Product information "Pregnavit® PLUS Select Phase II"
The expectant mother is the only source of nutrition for the unborn child, so a balanced and healthy diet is the basis for an undisturbed pregnancy and optimal foetal development.
You can cover this additional requirement for vitamins and minerals with Pregnavit PLUS Select Phase II. The nutrients it contains are precisely tailored to the additional requirements of this phase of pregnancy.
The special PLUS
- additional grape seed extracts (OPC)
- valuable omega-3 fatty acids (DHA and EPA)
- free from milk including lactose and yeast
Active ingredients
Doxosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) belong to the group of omega-3 fatty acids. These are among the unsaturated fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids are essential, i.e. vital, substances that cannot be produced by the body itself. We must therefore obtain them from our diet. They are an important component of all cell membranes, in particular the nerve tissue and the retina of the eye.
Several studies have shown that there is a positive correlation between a sufficient intake of these polyunsaturated fatty acids during pregnancy and the development of the child - especially the brain and eyes*.
Omega-3 fatty acids are mainly found in oily sea fish such as herring, mackerel and salmon. However, as the consumption of several portions of sea fish per week is not guaranteed, supplementation is advisable.
Leading professional organisations recommend that pregnant and breastfeeding women take an additional 200 mg of DHA per day.
*The positive effect is only achieved during pregnancy/breastfeeding if 200 mg DHA is taken daily in addition to the daily dose of omega-3 fatty acids recommended for adults (i.e. 250 mg DHA and/or EPA).
