True Folate
Folinic acid, an active form of folate that is unmethylated. This bioavailable folate is essential for DNA and RNA synthesis. It is also required for healthy genetic, spinal, and brain development.^†
Bioavailable B12
'Adeno' and 'Methyl' are known as superior forms of vitamin B12 that your body can readily utilize, acting as coenzymes to power important enzymes. Bioactive B12 supports healthy energy production, detoxification and is required to utilize folate for methylation processes.^†
Chelated Minerals
The minerals in this formula are bonded with amino acids. This makes them recognizable by your body for utilization and absorption.^†
Lutein & Zeaxanthin
Marigold flower extract provides these important yellow carotenoids that support eye health, vision, and natural defenses against blue light.^†

This essential vitamin is critical for healthy fetal development. Most prenatals do not use retinyl palmitate, the active form of vitamin A. Dr. Lynch uses this form of vitamin A as it supports healthy eye, skin, bone, and immune system health in both the mother and developing baby .^†
