Prenatal Essentials is designed for women who seek an affordable prenatal vitamin that contains only the basic essentials, nothing more. This formulation contains methylated nutrients for those who can tolerate methyl donors.&#x2020;
Prenatal Essentials may also be used by women who are using Optimal Prenatal. Some days, women need more support as found in Optimal Prenatal and other days, they require less comprehensive support and just need the essentials. Women who want to adjust and pulse their nutrients during pregnancy may find that alternating between these two prenatal products is helpful.
