One A Day Women's Prenatal Vitamins with Choline FAQ
What is the ingredient DHA in One A Day Women’s Prenatal? As a pregnant woman or a woman thinking of becoming pregnant, why do I need it?
DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) is an omega-3 fatty acid found naturally in fish such as tuna and salmon. DHA can also be found in algal oil. It is a major structural fat in your baby’s brain and the retina of your baby’s eyes. Supplementing your diet with DHA can help support healthy fetal brain and eye development. Prenatal 1 and Prenatal Advanced both have DHA sourced from fish.
Is it safe to take One A Day Prenatal Advanced over the counter?
Yes, it is safe for most women to take One A Day Prenatal Advanced. See the product page for specific warnings and allergen statements. One A Day® Prenatal Advanced includes 800 mcg of Folic Acid (222% of the Daily Value for pregnant women). Inform your doctor if you are taking One A Day Prenatal Advanced.
When should I start taking One A Day Prenatal Advanced? When should I stop?
The benefits of a prenatal multivitamin generally begin before pregnancy or in the very early stages of pregnancy. Prenatal multivitamin use, then, is commonly recommended to start before trying to become pregnant. Also, because pregnancy is sometimes unplanned, experts recommend 400 mcg of folic acid in addition to intake of food folate from a varied diet during the span of a woman’s childbearing years. Use of One A Day® Prenatal Advanced should be consistent throughout pregnancy and continued while breastfeeding as DHA will pass from mother to baby in breast milk to help support healthy brain and eye development in infancy.
Why is Choline important for a pregnant woman or a woman trying to get pregnant?
Leading medical authorities on maternal and infant health recognize that choline plays a critical role during the prenatal period in neural and brain development. The American Medical Association advises that a prenatal vitamin supplement should contain an adequate amount of Choline, and the American Academy of Pediatrics recognizes the importance of Choline as a “brain-building” nutrient. One A Day Prenatal Advanced Multivitamin provides 110 mg (20% of Daily Value) of Choline, compared to other leading prenatal multivitamin brands that only contain 0-55 mg of Choline.
