Optimal Prenatal MFis intended for women needing a powerful, nutrient-dense prenatal vitamin and are sensitive to methylated nutrients. This is great for those who are planning or trying to conceive, pregnant, or breastfeeding.*Optimal Prenatal MF is free from choline, inositol, betaine HCL, methylcobalamin, and methylfolate.<ul id="isPasted"><li style="font-size: 16px;">High-strength, methyl-free prenatal</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">Supports healthy immune, spine, and brain development</li><li style="font-size: 16px;">Free of methylated B vitamins, choline, betaine, and inositol (methyl donors)</li></ul><h4 id="isPasted">Do you get side effects from methylated nutrients?</h4>Some people experience nervousness, headaches, or rapid heartbeat when they take nutrients like methylcobalamin and methylfolate.Yet, these active forms of vitamin B12 and folate are required for a healthy and successful pregnancy. For women who are considered higher-risk, bioavailable and well-tolerated sources of B12 and folate are absolutely critical.&#x2020;Optimal Prenatal MF is the first non-methylated prenatal vitamin of its kind. This unique formula provides high-strength nutrition minus the methyl donors.&#x2020;If you relate to one or more of the following, then&#xA0;Optimal Prenatal MF may be exactly what you&#x2019;re looking for:&#xA0;&#x2020;<ul><li>I get side effects like nervousness, headaches, or rapid heartbeat when I take methylated nutrients.</li><li>I have a history of pregnancy complications or preterm births. I want to support a healthy pregnancy.</li><li>Prior pregnancies have been difficult.</li><li>I have multiple nutrient deficiencies.</li><li>I experience significant morning sickness.</li><li>Currently, I&#x2019;m trying to get pregnant and I am experiencing difficulties. I want to support healthy fertility.</li><li>I&#x2019;m looking for the most comprehensive prenatal formula.</li><li>I&#x2019;m tired and breastfeeding. I feel I need more nutritional support for both me and baby.</li><li>I tend towards feeling blue and tired. Experiencing a positive mood and healthy levels of energy would be lovely.</li><li>While 6 capsules per serving is a lot, it&#x2019;s ok for me as I know I&#x2019;m truly nourishing my developing baby, my placenta and myself. I also know I can take 2 capsules with breakfast, 2 with lunch and the rest with a mid-afternoon snack when I need a pick-me-up.</li></ul>If a number of those resonated with you, then&#xA0;Optimal Prenatal MF is something that you should seriously consider.&#x2020;If none of the statements above relate to your current life situation, then&#xA0;Optimal Prenatal MF is most likely not something you need right now.Most high-strength prenatals on the market contain methylated nutrients. If you&#x2019;re sensitive to methyl groups, you may have thought you have no options...until now.&#x2020;Dr. Ben Lynch designed&#xA0;Optimal Prenatal MF as a solution for women needing potent prenatal care, but are sensitive to methyl donors.&#x2020;(Wondering if you&#x2019;re sensitive to methylated nutrients?&#xA0;<a href="https://education.seekinghealth.com/methyl-free/">This article</a> will help you determine if you need methyl-free supplements.)Optimal Prenatal MF includes non-methylated forms of folate and B12. These&#xA0;<a href="https://education.seekinghealth.com/methyl-free/">methyl-free forms</a> take a few additional enzyme steps before they become methyl donors. This slower delivery may provide relief and comfort for women sensitive to methylated nutrients.&#x2020;Optimal Prenatal MF contains the key nutrients you need for a healthy pregnancy in bioavailable forms, including non-methylated B12 and folate.&#x2020;<ul><li>Folate, as Folinic acid (Calcium folinate)</li><li>B12, as Adenosylcobalamin and Hydroxocobalamin</li><li>Vitamin D3, as Cholecalciferol</li><li>Calcium, as DiCalcium malate</li><li>Ginger to support digestive comfort</li><li>30+ key nutrients to support a healthy pregnancy</li></ul>This nutrient-dense prenatal multivitamin is free of:<ul><li>Methylated B vitamins</li><li>Methylcobalamin</li><li>Methylfolate</li><li>S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe)</li><li>Choline</li><li>Inositol</li><li>Trimethylglycine (TMG or Betaine)</li></ul>Like methylfolate and methylcobalamin, folinic acid (folate) and adenosylcobalamin (B12) provide potent, bioavailable prenatal nutrition. These non-methylated forms may be a better option for those who are sensitive to methyl donors.&#x2020;Optimal Prenatal MF provides crucial support in the following areas of fetal development:&#x2020;<ul><li>Healthy spinal and brain development</li><li>Normal growth and development</li><li>Immune system support</li><li>Healthy antioxidant support</li><li>Digestive comfort for the mother</li></ul><a href="https://education.seekinghealth.com/folic-acid-side-effects/">Folic acid</a> is never included in any Seeking Health prenatals or dietary supplements. This artificial version of folate is not well utilized by the body. In fact, it can even contribute to folate deficiency!&#x2020;This prenatal vitamin does not include iron. Some women do not process iron well or do not need iron supplementation. This makes it easy to customize your dosage by supplementing separately with a&#xA0;<a href="https://www.seekinghealth.com/products/optimal-iron-chewable-60-tablets">gentle form of iron</a>. All our&#xA0;<a href="https://www.seekinghealth.com/collections/prenatal-vitamins">Seeking Health prenatal vitamins</a> are gluten-free.&#x2020;Dr. Lynch recommends starting prenatals for several months before trying to conceive.&#xA0;Optimal Prenatal MF can be taken before, during, and after pregnancy to support:&#x2020;<ul><li>Healthy fertility</li><li>Pregnancy health</li><li>Normal fetal development</li><li>Postpartum recovery</li><li>Breastfeeding</li></ul>Optimal Prenatal MF features well-absorbed, chelated minerals and bioavailable vitamins to nourish both of you through this nine-month journey.&#x2020;Pregnancy is hard enough.
