About Hovid Folic Acid 5mg Tablet 10s (strip)
A balanced diet is the greatest approach to obtain vitamins and minerals. During pregnancy, you may lack certain nutrients. Folic acid supplement such as Hovid Folic Acid 5mg Tablet is a good source of nutrients to prepare the body for pregnancy.
Why is it necessary to take prenatal supplements?
You require more folic acid and iron during pregnancy. Why?
Start taking extra folic acid 3 months before you plan to get pregnant.
Iron helps the placenta and foetus grow. Iron aids in the production of blood for the foetus. Iron also prevents anaemia, a condition when the blood lacks healthy red blood cells.
Which prenatal supplements are the most effective?
Prenatal supplements are commonly available. This is a personal choice. Look for a prenatal vitamin that has calcium, vitamin D, and folic acid. Teeth and bones grow with them. Seek for probiotics and prenatal supplements containing zinc and iodine.
Depending on the situation, your doctor may advise higher vitamin amounts. Before and throughout future pregnancies, your doctor may urge you to take a separate supplement with a higher amount of folic acid, like 4 milligrams (4,000 micrograms).
Avoid taking extra prenatal supplements or multivitamins. Some supplements in excess can harm your child. Extra vitamin A during pregnancy can harm the foetus.
Do I need to worry about additional nutrients?
Omega-3 fatty acids, found in many fish, aid a baby's development. If you don't eat fish or other omega-3-rich meals, your doctor may suggest omega-3 fatty acid supplements in addition to prenatal supplements.
When should I begin prenatal vitamin supplementation?
Prenatal supplements should be started before conception. In fact, pregnant women should take a prenatal vitamin on a daily basis.
