Folate status is critical for healthy embryonic and fetal development. Most supplements use a synthetic version of folate called folic acid that must first be converted by the body before use. Because nearly 50% of all humans have genetic variations that reduce their ability to complete this conversion, Fertilix only contains naturally occurring, bioactive L-methylfolate to ensure everyone receives maximum benefit.

Natural Vitamin E is known to have 8 forms and is recognized as one of the most potent fat-soluble antioxidants. Each of these forms has a different antioxidant property to protect cell membranes against oxidation from a wide variety of free radicals. Fertilix is the only prenatal to contain all 8 forms of Vitamin E in their natural form.

Vitamin D is an important micronutrient that has been implicated in supporting optimal reproductive health. In contrast to many other vitamins, the major source of Vitamin D does not come from food but rather through the exposure of our skin to sunlight. As such, inadequate exposure to sunlight leads to the high rates of Vitamin D deficiency that are common across large regions of the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia.

Iron is an essential component of the protein hemoglobin, which is required for the transport of oxygen. Despite the fact that iron is readily present in a number of foods, many women are at risk of deficiency, especially those on restricted diets such as vegetarianism or veganism. Furthermore, a woman’s iron intake requirements more than triple during pregnancy to support her developing child.

The Carnitine family of compounds has been extensively shown to benefit cellular health by both increasing mitochondrial energetic output and providing antioxidant protection against free radicals and reactive oxygen species. Fertilix utilizes a proprietary ratio of Propionyl-L-Carnitine and Acetyl-L-Carnitine for increased bioavailability and efficacy.

Coenzyme Q10 is a potent fat-soluble antioxidant that is produced naturally by our cells. It plays two major roles in promoting cellular health by improving mitochondrial energetics and boosting the antioxidant protection in cellular membranes both directly and indirectly through the synergistic regeneration of Vitamin E.

Among other roles, Choline is an essential nutrient in the production of the neurotransmitter, acetylcholine. Several studies now confirm Choline to support infant neural and cognitive development. Choline can be produced by the body in the liver but not in amounts sufficient to meet human needs, and pregnant and lactating women are at greater risk of inadequacy.
