KEY BENEFITS
ADVANCED* FOLIC ACID
Folate is important as it contributes to the growth of maternal tissue such as the placenta. Since the placenta provides your baby with all its nutrients, it's essential to make sure you get enough folate throughout your entire pregnancy.
The folate in Seven Seas Pregnancy comprises Folic Acid and L-methylfolate, an advanced* form of Folic Acid. L-methylfolate is a directly available form of folate that your body doesn't need to convert first. This is especially important as some women may only partially convert folic acid to the active form.
