Properties:
The new Femibion 1 formula has the same indications but more benefits for you and your baby.
Femibion 1 - Planning and Pregnancy supports you and your baby from the planning period until the 12th week of pregnancy (trimester 1). Ensuring sufficient folate intake is essential throughout pregnancy, especially during the first trimester.
A low maternal folate level is a risk factor in the development of neural tube defects in the fetus.
The folates in Femibion 1 - Planning and Pregnancy are folic acid and Metafolin. Metafolin is a form of folate directly usable by the body that it does not have to convert.
Femibion 1 - Planning and Pregnancy contains vitamin D to support the adequate intake of this nutrient during pregnancy. Vitamin D contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system and participates in the process of normal cell division. In addition to folate and vitamin D, Femibion 1 - Planning and Pregnancy contains: 9 other vitamins (vitamin B complex, vitamins C and E), iodine, selenium, choline and iron.
Iron contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells, hemoglobin and to the reduction of fatigue and exhaustion. Choline contributes to the normal metabolism of
homocysteine. Taking supplemental folic acid increases the mother's folate levels. Low maternal folate is a risk factor for the development of neural tube defects in the developing fetus.
Therefore, it is recommended to take 400 μg of additional folic acid daily, at least one month before and up to 3 months after conception.
There are several risk factors for the development of neural tube defects, and therefore modifying one of the factors may produce beneficial effects.
As folate also contributes to the growth of maternal tissue during pregnancy, e.g. formation of the placenta, it is recommended to ensure an adequate intake of folate throughout pregnancy. The placenta provides the baby with all the nutrients it needs.
