Vitamin A content of prenatal supplements
Hi,
Im 6 weeks & 4 days pregnant. I started using prenatal supplement called Thorne Basic even before I conceived. When I told that to my midwife, she asked me not to take it as it has higher Vit A level.
In the bottle, it is mentioned as "Vitamin A (3000 IU/ 450mcg RAE from Beta Carotene and 2000 IU/ 600 mcg RAE as Palmitate) 1.05mg. 117%dv.
My midwife recommended me Elevit which doesnt hv vitamin A in any form.
Im a bit confused now whether to use Thorne or not.
Do you use prenatal with vit A? If so, what is the level of vit A?
