Prenatal Multivitamin

UPDATE: So I took these for three months before TTC and got pregnant fairly quickly. Currently about halfway through my pregnancy and my bloodwork looks good and baby is growing well! I did have a huge problem with the taste during first trimester, but managed to force them down. Now I'm back to having no problem with the taste. I'm almost tempted to dock it a star for how bad it tasted during first tri but YMMV so I didn't. It's done everything I wanted and the main downside is just the cost compared to some cheaper brands. I have not had any issues with constipation or keeping it down. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I started taking these because I will be TTC soon and wanted the Folate now, and wanted to figure out a good prenatal now. I am mildly anemic and have attempted taking iron supplements before, but they made me feel so nauseous and sick that I stopped. Due to that, I was willing to spend a bit more on a prenatal that could actually get some iron in me and keep it down. This one with the two pills per day instead of one, less than 100% iron, and NO calcium to hinder the iron absorption, sounded like a perfect fit. Very happy to report that I have had no issues keeping these down, even taking them on an empty stomach. I feel more energetic than normal. It has a slight citrus taste, I can't say it is a good taste, but it is not repulsive and does not leave an aftertaste. The pill is large but that's to be expected of a two a day/one a day multivitamin pill, I think. Particularly with the iron. If large pills are a problem for you I'd recommend looking for something with more frequent but smaller doses. I plan to take Megafood's DHA & choline supplement as well as a vitamin C supplement while pregnant. If I take a blood test during the pregnancy I will update this review with the results...

Love these prenatals! I took these during my pregnancy and have continued taking them postpartum. I love that they have a nice taste to them. They taste a little sour like a lemon. I also love that the ingredients are really clean. I was looking for a prenatal with folate and not folic acid and these have folate. They are sometimes a little hard for me to swallow if I don’t have enough water in my mouth. Other than that I’ve been feeling great taking these postpartum everyday. I included a video so you can see how large the supplements are. Highly recommend these for any mama looking for a non toxic prenatal to take during pregnancy and postpartum.

It has a very mild unpleasant taste (isn't a big problem, it doesn't linger or anything) and every once in a while I have a moment of struggle trying to swallow it. If it bothered me enough I'd get their mini version instead. But the ingredients are top notch (+ so comprehensive) and I've never felt sick from these. I take these with the Baby & Me 2 "DHA & Choline" and between those 2 get everything I need and don't have to worry about making sure I eat specific things every day to supplement. I should note I did accidentally get pregnant on these which was my fault (happy accident), but not sure if it would've happened if I wasn't taking these. Lastly, my hair has been rapidly growing after years of breakage so now I never want to stop taking them. Would highly recommend!! P.s. this is the longest review I've ever written but I feel very strongly about these!

These are the best. Mega food is really top-of-the-line. They have high-quality nutrients, and also come in Amber glass bottles… The fact that they put their supplements in glass bottles is absolutely huge for me. I hate buying anything in plastic. Do you remember when the BPA’s were huge in the water bottles? How come nobody asked the same question about all the plastic that we put our food in? Plastic bags, plastic bottles, ketchup, bottles? Yeah not buying it. I’m so happy that they’re in glass!!!

As I am ordering these vitamins for my second pregnancy, I realized that I never made a review for my first. I started taking the gummies of this brand before we started trying to conceive. We conceived on the very first month of trying! After I found out I was pregnant, I switched to these pills. I will say that they are fairly large and have a weird taste if you take them with water. I always ended up taking them with juice or something and that helped tremendously. I love that these are made with real folate and real fruits and veggies. This vitamin never made me nauseous. I had a happy and healthy pregnancy. I then took the postnatal of this brand and it was great! I was definitely an over supplier. I do suggest taking a DHA pill alongside of your prenatal. My son is sooo smart. He is 18 months old and knows how to count to 10, how to spell his name, his colors, and a lot of animals along with their sounds. If you’re debating this vitamin, just get it!

​I am not actually pregnant but my nutritionist recommended this specific prenatal because I have low ferritin and the MTHFR gene mutation. My doctor confirmed I have high homocysteine and after reviewing the ingredients they agreed this was a great option for me. It contains the iron I need and the specific methylated form of folate that my body can actually process. I also really appreciate that it comes in a glass bottle to protect the integrity of the vitamins instead of cheap plastic. ​The pills are rather large so you should definitely keep that in mind if you have trouble swallowing bigger supplements. I personally do not mind the size at all but I know it can be a dealbreaker for some people. My only real complaint is the taste and the smell. It is not completely awful but it has that very common earthy and slightly weird vitamin scent. Since I have to take these for the long haul I would love if they tasted a little better but the quality of the ingredients makes it worth it. I will definitely keep ordering these for the health benefits regardless of the smell.

Love these vitamins and they don’t make me sick!

In my personal opinion, I think this is the best prenatal. I’ve done a lot of research and this prenatal has everything you absolutely need in great quantities. Just make sure you are taking your omegas/DHA separately as this does not contain it. I personally use Nordic Naturals and I love them. These pills are quite large and taste very natural but it’s not a problem to me. I will continue taking these pills and then transition to their postnatal line when time comes.
