LEPIVITS has developed this food supplement to prepare you for pregnancy and meet the micro-nutritional needs of mothers-to-be in the best possible way.

Natalvits concentrates 11 bioactive vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B8, B9, B12, C, D, E) essential for optimal metabolism, as well as minerals (iodine, selenium, zinc, chromium) and amino acids (N-acetyl-L-cysteine and acetyl-L-carnitine HCL) essential for proper cell function.

In addition, this prenatal supplement is distinguished above all by its concentration of choline, present in patented form and the subject of extensive research[1]. Today, choline is one of the key nutrients for a healthy pregnancy[2]. In fact, taking choline during pregnancy considerably improves the bioavailability of other nutrients, thereby contributing to better health for both mother-to-be and baby[3]. For the pregnant woman, choline will help reduce pregnancy-related complications while improving her lipid and liver metabolism[4]. While for the baby, this precious nutrient, as a homocysteine catalyst and acetylcholine precursor, will minimise neural tube defects and contribute to excellent cognitive development[5].
