  QUESTION: What supplements are recommended for preconception care and throughout pregnancy? 02 Dec 2004, South Australia

what supplements are recommended for preconception care and throughout pregnancy

ANSWER: 02 Dec 2004

Dear Maria,

It is recommended that you take guidance on this question from a health practitioner but among the supplements you could usefully discuss with your practitioner in relation to lead, are:

Vit C, zinc, iron, calcium, selenium, Omega 3 fatty acids (fish oil, flaxseed oil), EPA, lipoic acid, iodine (kelp, Centrum) and garlic.

Yours Sincerely
Elizabeth O'Brien
