Key Ingredients and Their Benefits
DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid)
DHA, or Docosahexaenoic Acid, is a crucial omega-3 fatty acid that plays a vital role in the development of a baby's brain and eyes. Health Canada recommends that pregnant and breastfeeding women ensure adequate DHA intake. Supplementation with DHA can help meet these needs, contributing to optimal fetal development.
Folic Acid
Folic Acid is essential for the prevention of neural tube defects in the developing fetus. It is recommended that women planning to become pregnant, and those already pregnant, take a daily dose of Folic Acid. Starting Folic Acid supplementation before conception is ideal, as it significantly reduces the risk of these serious birth defects.
Essential Vitamins and Minerals
Nestlé Materna contains a blend of key vitamins and minerals to support a healthy pregnancy. These include Vitamin D, which is important for bone health; Calcium, essential for both the mother's and baby's bones and teeth; and Iron, crucial for red blood cell production, helping to prevent iron-deficiency anemia. Other essential nutrients are included to address the increased nutritional demands of pregnancy and breastfeeding.
How to Use Nestlé Materna
Dosage Instructions
The recommended dosage for Nestlé Materna is one tablet daily, taken with food. This helps with absorption and ensures the body can effectively utilize the vitamins and minerals. It's generally recommended to take the supplement at a time that fits best into your daily routine.
Important Considerations
Nestlé Materna can be taken throughout pregnancy and during breastfeeding. It is often beneficial to start taking the supplement before conception to ensure adequate nutrient levels from the start. Always consult with a healthcare professional before beginning any new supplement regimen to ensure it is suitable for your individual needs and health conditions. The advice of a healthcare provider is always the best course of action.

Warnings and Precautions
