My Favorite Prenatal Vitamin
Vitamins are a great way to fill in any nutrient gaps that may be missing from your regular diet. This is especially important when pregnant or trying to conceive as they provide you with all the essential vitamins and minerals needed to sustain a healthy pregnancy and support your baby’s development.
I have been taking prenatal vitamins for the past four years and during this time have tried and tested many brands.
The Ritual Essential Prenatal has been formulated with 12 key nutrients for pregnancy, in clean and absorbable forms and does not contain anything artificial, is free of GMOs, and with traceable nutrients that are gluten-free and vegan friendly.
These are just a few of the reasons that I have become a Ritual-convert:
Value for money
Convenience - just two capsules per day
Subscription-based… no remembering to re-order!!
Swallow-ability (trust me, you’ll want this if battling extreme nausea in the first trimester)
Sustainable packaging (both bottles and mailers) I actually switched from another brand that shall remain nameless because I couldn’t handle the enormous amount of plastic waste that came with each order!!
Free shipping - this is a biggie for me!
30-day money-back guarantee and easy, hassle-free cancellations
I recommend that my preconception clients who are trying to conceive (TTC) incorporate a prenatal vitamin at least three months prior to commencing their fertility treatment or becoming pregnant. A prenatal vitamin contains essential vitamins and minerals such as folate, choline, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins B, D, and iron. All of these help to prepare your body for a future pregnancy, fill in any nutrient gaps, and support your baby’s neural tube and brain development.
When choosing a prenatal vitamin, look for a brand that does not contain any of the common allergens including gluten, wheat, soy, dairy, shellfish, nuts, eggs and be sure that it is free from artificial colors, sweeteners, and preservatives. If you have an MTHFR gene mutation it is important to choose a prenatal vitamin that includes methylated folate. The Ritual Essential Prenatal ticks all of these boxes!!
Not pregnant?! Ritual has a range of multivitamins for 18+ 50+ (men’s and women’s) and a new multivitamin for teens!
