As mothers, we want to give our babies the very best that we can provide -- including the best foods to help our developing baby grow healthy and strong and the perfect prenatal supplementation. So what is the perfect prenatal for both moms and babies? Being a Nutritionist of 15 years, I have researched many prenatal formulas to determine which is the best prenatal multivitamin supplement to recommend to expectant mothers. My research has shown that the best and most nutritious prenatal formulas would be those created from organic, whole food ingredients rather than vitamins created from isolated nutrients. Whole food, organic multivitamin supplements provide a wide array of nutrients that contain the wisdom of Mother Nature -- food in its whole form, complete with all the co-factors and phytonutrients needed for proper absorption and utilization. In addition, this whole food, organic prenatal multivitamin formula would include probiotics and made of pre-digested nutrients, so that they are easy for mothers to digest, even on an empty stomach. Organic ingredients are also extremely important in a prenatal multivitamin formula because mothers do not want to expose themselves or their developing babies to chemical toxins present in so much of our commercial food supply. So What is the Perfect Prenatal? My first pick for the perfect prenatal for mothers and babies would be the Perfect Prenatal by New Chapter. The New Chapter Perfect Prenatal multivitamins are organic, probiotic, cultured whole-food nutrition, which provide all of the necessary nutrients in a form that both mother's and baby's bodies can recognize and utilize effectively. New Chapter teamed up with a special council of Midwives that consulted them in the formulation and development of Perfect Prenatal. One factor which the council of midwives expressed is that fatigue and stress, both emotional and physical, are other major issues for pregnant women. New Chapter’s Perfect Prenatal multivitamin contains the highest ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity) rated fruits including blackberry, blueberry, prune and raisin antioxidant concentrates. These fruits, together with 17 vegetable, herbal and superfood concentrates, promote vitality and cell protection. Perfect Prenatal vitamins also delivers 23 different easily digested, energizing and protective probiotic, whole food vitamins and minerals as well as 13 stress-balancing and free radical scavenging herbal botanicals cultured for maximum effectiveness. Herbs like lavender and lemon balm have been revered for their soothing properties while other antioxidative herbs like peppermint, clove, and rose hips provide key health benefits that support and sustain. Give you and your baby the best whole food, organic prenatal supplementation possible - New Chapter Perfect Prenatal Multivitamin whole food supplements.

What if we could literally grow our vitamin supplements? It makes sense to take a whole food multivitamin that provides us all of the cofactors like probiotics, enzymes, antioxidants and phytonutrients as well as a host of other vitamins and minerals needed for proper absorption and utilization. A special culturing process with these nutrients would create a nutritional formula with 100% active and raw ingredients.
