Ideally, we recommend starting at least 3 months before you begin trying to conceive. This gives your body time to build up optimal nutrient levels before pregnancy. That said, it's never too late to start, the blend supports you all the way through pregnancy and into postpartum too!
-
Take 3 capsules daily with food. You can split the 3 capsules up over the day. Taking them with a meal helps with absorption and can also help if you have a sensitive stomach.
-
We've included 20 premium, bio-active nutrients in their most absorbable forms, so your body can actually use them. That means Methylfolate (Quatrefolic®) instead of synthetic folic acid, and active B12 (Methylcobalamin) rather than cheaper, less effective forms. Every ingredient and dose has been chosen with both mother and baby in mind
-
Great question! Methylfolate is the active, bio-available form of folate that your body can use immediately. A significant number of women have a genetic variation (MTHFR) that makes it harder to convert standard folic acid into the form the body needs. Using Methylfolate (as Quatrefolic®) means everyone gets the full benefit - no conversion needed!
-
Yes! Our blend contains 600mcg of Methylfolate (Quatrefolic®), meeting the recommended intake for every stage of your journey.
-
Aquamin® is a unique, marine-derived source of calcium and magnesium sourced from red algae off the Irish coast. It's highly bioavailable and supports bone health, muscle function and overall wellbeing - all really important during pregnancy and postpartum.
-
Yes, absolutely - in fact the first trimester is one of the most important times to ensure your nutrient levels are optimal, particularly Folate, Vitamin D and Choline for healthy foetal development. As always, we recommend checking in with your healthcare provider too.
-
Yes! The blend has been designed to support you through postpartum and breastfeeding (trimester four, as we like to call it). All nutrients are safe during breastfeeding, but we always recommend checking with your healthcare provider.
-
Choline is one of the most important and most overlooked nutrients in pregnancy. It plays a critical role in foetal brain development and neural tube formation, yet most prenatal supplements don't include it at all. We've included 400mg to make sure you're covered.
-
Iron isn't included in this blend, as iron requirements vary significantly from woman to woman and too much iron can cause digestive upset. Iron also competes for absorption of nutrients such as calcium. We recommend pairing our blend with Gigi's Iron Capsules if your levels need support - ideally based on a blood test result.
-
Yes! It's vegan, halal, gluten-free, and contains no fillers, binders or preservatives. Just the good stuff.
-
We'd always recommend checking with your healthcare provider before combining supplements, especially during pregnancy. That said, our blend has been designed to be comprehensive so most women won't need to add much else other than a DHA omega 3 supplement!
-
Each tub contains 90 capsules, which is a 30-day supply when taking the recommended 3 capsules daily.
-
Ideally, we recommend starting at least 3 months before you begin trying to conceive. This gives your body time to build up optimal nutrient levels before pregnancy. That said, it's never too late to start. The powder supports you all the way through pregnancy and into postpartum too!
-
Simply add 1 level scoop (6.7g) to 200–400ml of water, juice or a smoothie. Take it daily, after a meal - morning or evening, whichever works best for you. If you're also taking Gigi's Iron Capsules, take them at the opposite time of day for the best absorption
-
The Advanced Powder has been designed for women who have been on their journey a little longer, those beginning their TTC journey later in life, or anyone looking for additional antioxidant support. If you want a max-strength formula with a broader nutrient profile, this is it!
-
We've packed 23 premium, bio-active nutrients into every scoop, in their most absorbable forms, at optimal doses. That includes Methylfolate (Quatrefolic®) instead of synthetic folic acid, vitamin D, zinc, magnesium, and premium antioxidants like Zealutein® (lutein & zeaxanthin) that most prenatal supplements simply don't include. Every ingredient has been chosen with both mother and baby in mind.

Aquamin® is a unique, marine-derived source of calcium and magnesium sourced from red algae off the Irish coast. It's highly bioavailable and supports bone health, muscle function and overall wellbeing - all really important during pregnancy and postpartum.
-
During pregnancy, your body's demand for these nutrients increases significantly. Calcium supports your baby's developing bones and teeth while protecting your own bone density. Magnesium helps with muscle function, reduces tiredness and fatigue, and supports overall wellbeing. Chromium helps maintain normal blood glucose levels, which is especially important during pregnancy when imbalances can be associated with gestational diabetes. We've increased the doses in the Advanced Powder to give you and your baby even stronger support.
-
The Advanced Powder includes a powerful antioxidant complex - Zealutein® (lutein & zeaxanthin), Mixed Tocopherols (natural vitamin E), and vitamins C, E, zinc, copper and selenium. Antioxidants help protect your cells from oxidative stress, which can be elevated during pregnancy. Zealutein® in particular supports eye and brain development in your baby, as these carotenoids accumulate in the retina and brain. The mixed tocopherols provide broad-spectrum vitamin E protection, supporting maternal cardiovascular health and overall antioxidant coverage throughout pre-conception, pregnancy and breastfeeding.
-
Zealutein® is a premium, clinically researched form of lutein and zeaxanthin - carotenoids that accumulate in the retina and brain. They help protect cells from oxidative stress, support healthy vision and cognitive development in your baby, and contribute to overall maternal and foetal wellbeing. It's one of the stand-out ingredients that sets the Advanced Powder apart from standard prenatal supplements.

-
We'd recommend choosing one as your core daily prenatal supplement rather than taking both together, as the nutrients overlap. If you're unsure which is best for you, the AdvancedPowder is designed for those wanting additional antioxidant support and a higher-strength formula. Always check with your healthcare provider if you're unsure.
