How Prenatal Works
Prenatal is from the Douglas Labs Multivitamins product line.
Prenatal contains Metafolin, a patented, natural form of (6S) 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5- MTHF).
L-methylfolate is the naturally occurring, predominant form of folate commonly found in cells and is essential for a developing fetus , as it participates as a cofactor in a reaction that involves the remethylation of homocysteine to methionine. Metafolin contains only the S isomer of 5- MTHF and has been shown to be the only form of folate to be able to cross the blood-brain barrier.
Lutein is an important antioxidant that helps protect cells from oxidative damage, and is only available through dietary sources such as colored fruits and vegetables . This carotenoid has been found in the cord blood and the mother’s blood during pregnancy and post -partum in breast milk and colostrum. These levels directly reflect dietary intake of lutein by the mother. Lutein is found in the retina and the brain, and therefore a highly beneficial nutrient for the baby’s visual and neural development.
