About, ingredients & important information
A pregnancy-focused nutritional foundation.
IPS Mom Plus is a complementary medicine and a source of vitamins and minerals for the maintenance of good health, especially for pregnant women. It combines calcium, iron, vitamin D3, zinc, vitamin A, folic acid, and a full spread of B vitamins and vitamin C, in one daily capsule.
Why these ingredients
- Folic acid is included at 400 µg — a level associated with helping reduce the risk of neural tube defects when taken before falling pregnant and during early pregnancy.
- A range of B vitamins support normal growth and development and help maintain good health; vitamin B12 additionally assists in the production of red blood cells.
- Calcium helps with the development and maintenance of bones and teeth.
- Iron helps with the production of red blood cells and supports their proper function.
- Zinc helps maintain immune function, plays a role in connective tissue formation, and helps maintain healthy skin, hair and nails.
This might be for you if…
- You want prenatal-style vitamin and mineral support in one daily capsule.
- You’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning a pregnancy — and you’ll check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting, as advised below.
- You’d rather see a full ingredient list with quantities than a vague “pregnancy formula” label.
