You guys know by now I’m a sucker for stylish, sleek packaging. This usually transfers to my choice of skincare, cosmetics and hair care, however, who knew it would start to tip over into my supplement cupboard, too?
I’m turning 32 weeks pregnant this week, and ever since I found out I as pregnant at around 4 weeks, I’ve been taking pregnancy vitamins religiously everyday. A few people I know have tailed off before the end, however for me, I’ve literally been adamant to continue the regime daily, and I have every intention of continuing when the babies born, too! I mean, I always took vitamins everyday anyway before I got pregnant. So I guess it’s a natural habit for me, luckily!
The supplements which look just beautiful in my kitchen cupboard are from wellness brand EQUI. I have two different supplements from them which are tailored towards providing full health for every stage of pregnancy, but you’ll also fin that EQUI specialise in women’s wellbeing, skin and everyday health too, so they aren’t just a pregnancy targeted brand.
If you’re thinking of a supplement to take throughout your pregnancy, no matter if you’re trying for a baby or you’re 30 weeks due and haven;t really been ‘on it’, I’d highly recommend this brand. Take a little read below on the science behind them, and why I have peace of mind daily:
EQUI Pregnancy Formula Supplements
These supplements are catered for you from fertility to conception, pregnancy to breastfeeding, so you don’t have to worry about changing them up at any time. The EQUI Pregnancy Formula provides 26 of the finest ingredients for a full comprehensive and specialist support for every stage of motherhood. You’ll find them packed with a tailored blend of the most premium, bio-available vitamins, minerals, oils and herbs at their optimal levels to boost fertility and support healthy pregnancy; they also contain a full spectrum of the nutrients necessary to female health and wellbeing. Honestly, peace of mind about your health and what the baby recieves is priceless when pregnant as most mums-to-be will tell you!
The Pregnancy Formula supplements include optimal levels of Methyl-Folate (a natural and superior form of folic acid) for healthy foetal development, B Vitamins to support energy, ginger to discourage nausea, TRACCS® minerals (in a chelated form – more easily absorbed and gentle, so you don’t need excessive levels) and Choline to aid healthy neural tube development and help prevent birth defects, an often deficient nutrient overlooked by all other pre-natal supplements.
And as I mentioned earlier, just how stylish are the packaging? I know there are many other popular pregnancy nutrition and supplement brands out there, but when you line EQUI up next to them, you can really see the impressive look and feel they give off. Sleek, contemporary and stylish – and who knew I’d be saying that about my supplements!
I take one capsule 4 times a day, but if I forget and take 2 or 3, it doesn’t matter too much – but 4 is for optimum results.
I always take one after my cereal and tea in the morning, my next one with my lunch, then one before dinner and just before bed.
Pregnancy Oil Edition
For the best results, it’s advised to take the pregnancy formular alongside EQUI Pregnancy Oil Edition capsules, too. These accompany the Pregnancy Formula, and are the brands premium omega 3 fish oil capsules which are rich in DHA. This means they support healthy development of baby’s brain, eyes and nervous system, which is what we are all striving for when carrying our babies.
Alongside EPA, this specialist formula supports your whole body as a mum too. The capsules use super-pure, triglyceride form oils for enhanced absorption to help you bloom as you grow your little one!
I take 1 of these a day, usually after my cereal in the morning.
The Pregnancy Formula supplements cost £69, and the Oil Edition cost £30 per bottle. They currently have 20% off on their site at the moment, so be quick!
