Is Nature Made Prenatal Multi + DHA A High Quality Vitamin?

 Nature Made sells many over the counter supplements, that are available at most grocery stores. Nature Made has always made a prenatal vitamin, but has recently improved their old formulation. However, it seems to me, that not all the changes were improvements.

Nature Made Prenatal Multi + DHA Ingredient Overview

I am very disappointed that this prenatal contains synthetic food dyes. Nature Made Prenatal Multi + DHA contains Red 40, Yellow 6, and Blue 1. These dyes are completely unnecessary and should be avoided by pregnant women.

The ingredients in this supplement meet recommend standards for a prenatal vitamin, but that’s about it. Nature Made Prenatal Multi + DHA does not go above and beyond the bare minimum to offer advanced ingredients such as; CoQ10, probiotics, and ginger.

I do like that Nature Made Prenatal has been improved, it now comes in a gel cap and they have added DHA.

Ingredients:Fish Oil, Calcium Carbonate, Gelatin, Soybean Oil, Ascorbic Acid, Water, Ferrous Fumarate, Glycerin, Zinc Oxide, Niacinamide, Soy Lecithin, dl-Alpha Tocopheryl Acetate, Yellow Beeswax, Titanium Dioxide (artificial color), Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Thiamin Mononitrate, Beta Carotene, Riboflavin, Red 40, Folic Acid, Yellow 6, Blue 1, Cyanocobalamin, Cod Liver Oil, Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol).

How much is Nature Made Prenatal Multi + DHA?

This prenatal vitamin is $26.99 for a month supply.

Nature Made Prenatal Multi + DHA Conclusion

I just can’t get passed the artificial dyes in this prenatal vitamin to recommend it. There are much better prenatal vitamins available that don’t contain these unnatural dyes. Don’t get me wrong, taking Nature Made Prenatal Multi + DHA is certainly better that not taking anything, but its definitely not the best prenatal for your baby. Below are high quality prenatal vitamins I highly recommend.
