PRENATALOne A Day

Women's Prenatal 1

Covers prenatal basics but uses folic acid instead of methylfolate. Up to 40% of women carry MTHFR gene variants that limit folic acid conversion. For neural tube defect prevention, that's not an acceptable gamble. Ritual or Thorne prenatals use the active form.

6.0/10
GOOD

Covers the prenatal basics but uses folic acid instead of methylfolate. Up to 40% of women can't convert folic acid efficiently due to MTHFR gene variants.

Whenevening

Iron can cause nausea. Evening dosing may reduce morning sickness.

Foodwith food

Iron and fat-soluble vitamins absorb better with food. Reduces nausea.

SafetyAll clear

Iron can cause constipation. Take with vitamin C to improve absorption.

ResearchStrong evidence

Prenatal supplementation is extremely well-studied. MTHFR concerns with folic acid are validated.

What We Like

  • DHA at 200mg supports fetal brain development.
  • Iron at 28mg is appropriate for pregnancy needs.
  • Widely available and affordable.

Watch Out For

  • Uses folic acid, not methylfolate. 40% of women have MTHFR variants.
  • Cyanocobalamin instead of methylcobalamin.
  • Calcium at 150mg is insufficient (need 1000mg during pregnancy).
  • Vitamin D at 400 IU is below modern recommendations.
