Blackmores Conceive Well™ Gold prepares the body for healthy conception. Some of the key nutrients include:
- Folic acid - Contains a daily dose of 500 micrograms of folic acid which may reduce the risk of neural tube defects if taken for 1 month prior to conception and during the first trimester of pregnancy
- Iodine – supports healthy foetal brain development
- Iron – supports healthy foetal development. 38-40% of Australian women have below recommended intake of iron
- Fish oil - is a source of omega-3 long chain fatty acids
Once you fall pregnant we recommend you switch to Blackmores Pregnancy & Breast-Feeding Gold, a premium pregnancy formulation containing vitamins, nutrients and essential fatty acids beneficial for both mother and baby.
