Meyer Vitabiotics Pregnatone Capsules
Meyer Vitabiotics Pregnatone is a comprehensive prenatal multivitamin and mineral supplement formulated to support women during pre-conception, pregnancy, and the postnatal (breastfeeding) period. Manufactured by Meyer Organics in partnership with Vitabiotics UK, it provides a cost-effective solution for maternal nutritional support in Nigeria.
Key Benefits of Pregnatone
Pregnatone is designed to prevent nutritional deficiencies that can occur during pregnancy. This "blood tonic" in capsule form helps ensure both mother and baby get the right nutrients. It contains essential micronutrients including:
- Folic Acid (1.5mg): A therapeutic dose to help reduce the risk of neural tube defects and support healthy fetal development.
- Iron (30mg): Essential for healthy blood formation and to help reduce pregnancy-related fatigue and anemia.
- Zinc (20mg) & Vitamin C (80mg): Helps support a healthy immune system for both mother and baby.
- Magnesium (75mg): Supports overall metabolic health and bone strength.
How to use Pregnatone
The recommended dosage is one capsule daily after a main meal. Swallow with water or a cold drink. Do not chew the capsules. Taking it with food helps maximize nutrient absorption and reduces the likelihood of stomach upset or nausea.
Pregnatone vs Pregnacare
Many women in Nigeria compare Pregnatone with the imported Pregnacare line. While both brands are developed with Vitabiotics expertise, Pregnatone is manufactured regionally to be more affordable while featuring a higher concentration of Folic Acid (1.5mg) specifically for the Nigerian market. It is an excellent alternative to brands like Obron-6.
