NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION:
Femibion® 2 Pregnancy provides you with the following nutrients:
- FOLIC ACID: A B vitamin that is converted into folate in the body. Folate contributes to the normal formation of blood cells, the process of cell division and the growth of maternal tissues during pregnancy.
- METAFOLIN®: An “active form” of folate, which is directly available in your body and does not need to be transformed. Metafolin® is a registered trademark of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany.
- LUTEIN: A carotenoid found in various plants, including many fruits and vegetables. It gives the capsule its characteristic color.
- DHA: Docosahexaenoic acid, an omega-3 fatty acid that plays a special role during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Pregnant and breastfeeding women are advised to take an additional 200 mg of DHA per day, as it contributes to the normal development of the brain and eyes of the fetus and breastfed infant. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 200 mg of DHA in addition to the recommended daily intake of omega-3 fatty acids for adults, i.e. 250 mg of DHA and EPA.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
After the birth of your baby, we recommend switching to Femibion® 3 Breastfeeding. You can choose to breastfeed your baby. Breastfeeding helps you form a strong bond with your baby and also provides your baby with essential nutrients. When breastfeeding, nutritional requirements are higher for certain nutrients. For example, special care must be taken to ensure adequate intake of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which contributes to the normal development of the brain and eyes of the fetus and breastfed infant. The beneficial effects of DHA are obtained with a daily intake of 200 mg of DHA in addition to the recommended daily intake of 250 mg of omega-3 fatty acids for adults (DHA + EPA).
