Vitamin Mama

Supporting your body in a healthy way is always important, but perhaps even more so when trying to conceive and during pregnancy. You want the very best for yourself and your child.

What is the Ultimate MultiMama?

The Ultimate MultiMama from Ovabalance is a multivitamin specially designed for you: A woman who wants to become pregnant, pregnant women or women who are breastfeeding.

The Ultimate MultiMama is an excellent nutritional addition to your daily healthy diet.

Mama Vitamin Supplement from Ovabalance

The Ultimate MultiMama is a multivitamin specially formulated for the expectant mother. Your need for nutrients is different when you want to become pregnant, are expecting or are breastfeeding and this "mom vitamin" takes this into account.

You want to prepare your body for a possible pregnancy and when you are pregnant or breastfeeding, this demands a lot from your body. In addition to a balanced diet, it is important to consciously pay attention to your daily intake of various vitamins and minerals.

General advice from midwives and doctors is that you should start taking folic acid at least 4 weeks before conception. MultiMama contains the natural, best absorbable form of folic acid, Folate. If you choose the Multivitamin Multi Mama from Ovabalance, taking a separate folic acid supplement is no longer necessary.

Vitamin A can sometimes be a bit daunting because it is advised not to get too much of it when you are pregnant. But vitamin A also has important properties. This mama vitamin therefore contains vitamin A in the form of beta-carotene. Your body converts this substance into vitamin A itself and will never do this too much. This means that you can never get too much vitamin A.

Ultimate MultiMama contains other B vitamins such as B12 and B6 in addition to B11 (folic acid). This is not without reason, because the B vitamins are strongly dependent on each other in order to function properly. The vitamins strengthen each other's effect and are involved in various processes in the body.
Vitamin D is needed to properly absorb calcium from our food. Calcium ensures the construction and maintenance of strong bones and that is extra important for you and your baby during pregnancy. Multi mama contains 15 mcg vegan vitamin D3. The nutrition center advises to use vitamin D daily during your pregnancy.

The Ovabalance MultiMama during pregnancy and breastfeeding

Your body has different needs when you are pregnant. Your body is developing and is busy giving your child what it needs. The need for nutrients changes because of this.

The Ultimate MultiMama multivitamin contains a selection of 29 vitamins and minerals tailored to the needs of you and your baby.

Why is Ultimate MultiMama dosed higher than other multivitamins?

Ultimate MultiMama is higher dosed because as a pregnant woman you have an increased need for many nutrients, this also applies when you are breastfeeding. In addition, the recommended daily requirement (RDA) is a minimum and an average, it is therefore not applicable to every situation or person.

The actual absorption of nutrients also depends on several factors, which is why Ultimate MultiMama contains a higher dosage. Of course, stick to the recommended daily dosage: take 2 capsules with water.

When do I start taking Ultimate MultiMama?

This multivitamin is specially designed for the (expectant) mother. If you want to become pregnant, you must use folic acid at least 4 weeks before conception. That is why we recommend taking Ultimate Multi Mama from the moment you are trying to conceive. So from the moment you stop taking the pill or other form of contraception. If you are pregnant and have not yet started taking folic acid, we recommend that you start taking this mama vitamin as soon as possible.

The recommended dosage is a daily intake of 2 capsules per day after a meal. This can be divided over the day or 2 capsules at once.

MultiMama as a nutritional supplement when trying to conceive

Of course, you don't know in advance how long it will take before you get pregnant. But even before that happens, you want to provide your body with the right nutrients.

In addition to a healthy lifestyle, the general advice from midwives is to start taking folic acid from the moment you stop using contraception. There are many folic acid supplements on the market that usually contain the synthetic form. We consciously choose the natural form of folic acid. And in addition to the correct dosage of folic acid, there are 28 vitamins and minerals in this food supplement.

Folic acid

Folic acid/B11 is important because it contributes to an increased folate status. Folate is the bioactive form of folic acid. Folate contributes to tissue growth during pregnancy. It supports the formation of the placenta and contributes to the growth of the baby.

The Ultimate MultiMama contains folate instead of synthetic folic acid, as you find in many other multivitamins.

Folate no longer needs to be converted in the body before it is effective. The supplement contains the correct dosage of folate that you need when trying to conceive and during pregnancy. It is therefore no longer necessary to take folic acid separately in addition to this multivitamin. How efficient!

Health claims B11 / Folic acid:

• Folate contributes to the formation of the placenta
• Folate contributes to the growth of the fetus/unborn child during pregnancy
• has a beneficial effect on reducing tiredness and fatigue
• Folate contributes to resistance to stress
• also helps to ensure good resistance

Vitamin A

As a pregnant woman, you are sometimes warned about the dangers of an excess of vitamin A. In the past, it was said that you should avoid vitamin A completely. This is a myth, because did you know that the need for vitamin A is actually higher during pregnancy and breastfeeding? That is why Ultimate MultiMama does contain vitamin A, but in the form of beta-carotene. Beta-carotene still has to be converted into vitamin A in the body. And your body will never convert more than necessary. This prevents a vitamin A level that is too high. That is why this is a safe dosage of vitamin A.

With vitamin A in food, caution is advised. Avoid liver, liverwurst and pate during your pregnancy. This contains about 1,200 micrograms of vitamin A per spread sandwich.

Health Claims Vitamin A:

• Vitamin A plays a role in the cell specialization process
• promotes the availability of iron from body stores
• supports the body's defenses

Choline

Choline is good for homocysteine ​​metabolism. Homocysteine ​​is an amino acid. In addition, choline supports the cleansing action of the liver. And it contributes to the preservation of the structure of cell membranes.
Ultimate MultiMama contains 110 mg choline per serving (two capsules).

Iron

When you are pregnant, you have a greater need for iron. This iron is needed to support the production of cells and tissues. As the pregnancy progresses, the uterus, placenta and embryo need more and more blood and oxygen. A lot of iron is needed to produce blood. That is why Ultimate MultiMama contains 28 mg of iron.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C ensures better absorption of iron, so vitamin C is also an important part of this multivitamin.

Vitamin D

Vitamin D is also called the sunshine vitamin. This is because your body produces vitamin D as soon as your skin comes into contact with the sun.

A woman needs extra vitamin D during pregnancy. However, during pregnancy you want to be a little more careful with the sun on your skin. Certain hormones can lead to increased melanin production, which can cause hyperpigmentation. In other words, the well-known pregnancy mask.

The Health Council advises women to take 10 mcg extra vitamin D per day during pregnancy. In the multi Mama, one of the vitamins is vitamin D3.
