A healthy, balanced and varied diet is particularly important during pregnancy. Contrary to what is often assumed, the energy requirement only increases by about ten percent over the course of pregnancy. In contrast, the need for valuable ingredients such as vitamins, minerals and trace elements increases, in some cases considerably.

Which nutrients are more needed during pregnancy and breastfeeding?

Folic acid:
During pregnancy, the need for folic acid increases by around 50 percent. However, even before pregnancy, many women do not take in enough folic acid. However, folate levels that are too low at the beginning of pregnancy increase the risk of developing neural tube defects (eg "open back"). The vitamin is also indispensable for cell division and growth of the unborn child in the further course of pregnancy. Folic acid is a synthetically produced precursor of the vitamin, which must first be converted into effective folate compounds in the body. Summavit ^® materna contains an already active form of folic acid and thus avoids this problem.

Iodine:
Iodine contributes to the normal production of thyroid hormones and normal thyroid function. Pregnant women need more iodine because the increased metabolic processes increase their own need for thyroid hormones by up to 50 percent. In addition, the growing baby is dependent on the mother's iodine supply in order to be able to start producing hormones themselves. With iodine deficiency there is an increased risk of miscarriages and malformations as well as impairment of intellectual development. Recommendation of the "Gesund im Leben" network: From the beginning of pregnancy, healthy pregnant women should supplement 100 μg to 150 μg iodide daily.

Omega-3 fatty acid DHA:
DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) supports the normal development of the baby's brain and eyes during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Pregnant women should therefore take 200 mg DHA daily in addition to the recommended daily dose of 250 mg omega-3 fatty acids for adults.

Other important nutrients:
In order to optimally cover the increased nutrient requirements during pregnancy, a supplement is recommended that contains folic acid, iodine and omega-3 fatty acids, as well as the following nutrients: vitamin D, B vitamins, vitamin E, calcium, Iron.
