This formula contains both folinic acid and L-5-MTHF, the most biologically available forms of folate, which are essential during pregnancy to support healthy brain development. L-5-MTHF works in conjunction with chelated minerals and coenzyme forms of B vitamins to support cardiovascular, neurologic, and immune health and normal cell growth. This formula is iron-free for maximal versatility.
Optimal Prenatal Chewable also contains two active coenzyme forms of vitamin B12: methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin, which may help support healthy fetal development, energy metabolism and methylation. The well-balanced vitamin B complex is complete with active forms of riboflavin and B6 to support healthy growth and development.*
Vitamin A is included in two forms: beta-carotene and retinyl palmitate, to help support those who have trouble converting “provitamin A” compounds (such as beta-carotene) into the active retinyl/retinol forms. Vitamin C and coenzyme Q10 provide antioxidant support, supporting a healthy immune system and cellular integrity. Trace minerals are included in their chelated forms, as amino acid-chelated minerals are typically well-absorbed and may be more easily tolerated than alternative supplemental forms. Betaine Anhydrous (TMG) is also added for additional methylation support.*
For the comprehensive prenatal nutrient support with additional herbs and amino acids, consider our Optimal Prenatal Capsules or our great-tasting Optimal Prenatal Protein Powder – available in creamy vanilla or chocolate.

The ingredients in Optimal Prenatal Chewables are sourced as follows:
Optimal Prenatal Chewables do not contain any gluten or gluten-containing ingredients. However, the final product has not yet been tested for gluten content, so it cannot be labeled “gluten-free.” We are working on conducting allergen testing on all products in the Seeking Health line. The vitamin E is derived from soy. If you are allergic or sensitive to soy, consult your allergist and/or healthcare practitioner prior to use. This product does not contain any corn or grain, but the vitamin C is derived from corn.

Optimal Prenatal Chewable does not contain GMO markers, but testing has not been done to verify whether the ingredients are derived from GMO sources. We are currently working on conducting complete product testing to verify that the finished product is GMO-free.
Optimal Prenatal Capsules are vegetarian. The vitamin D3 is derived from lanolin from sheep’s wool, so this product is not vegan.
