The Dietary Reference intake is the gold standard for the dose, and the ratios of essential nutrients.

Your body recognizes proteins more readily than straight minerals and will benefit more greatly from this format. This also allows the formulation to avoid excessive mineral levels to compensate.

Statistics show that one out of every 6 couples, and one out of every 3 couples in their late 30's, has difficulties conceiving a child. While many may think the problem rests with one of the partners, it is more likely that both partners in the relationship may be having fertility-related issues. Many experts believe that nutrition has a major influence on fertility. What's more, the health of both partners has an impact on the health of the sperm and ova. Couples hoping to conceive a child can improve the likelihood of conception, and set the stage for a healthy pregnancy, by maximizing their dietary and nutritional health. Health surveys routinely find that North Americans are not consuming the minimum daily recommendations of fruit and vegetables. Balanced nutritional supplementation helps to round out dietary intake. This is especially important when it is otherwise difficult to eat healthy, wholesome meals throughout the day, and in particular for a couple hoping to conceive a child. Designed by leading nutritional scientists and registered dieticians, the Sweet Momma® Planned preconception supplement system provides the Dietary Reference Intake (DR) for essential nutrients, to complement a healthy, balanced diet.
Planned Preconception supplements for men and women provide excellent nutritional support for promoting fertility, and set the stage for a healthier conception and new baby. The dose and ratio of the nutrients helps to correct nutritional inadequacies, while the provision of plant-based extracts provides valuable antioxidant intake. The capsules come in an easy-to-swallow format, and are free of synthetic dyes and sweeteners, gluten, glucose, wheat and yeast. The capsules are suitable for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians.
Once a woman becomes pregnant, good nutrition becomes vital for supporting the health of both the expecting mother and the growing baby fetus. Proper nutrition during pregnancy is needed to meet the demands of the increasing blood volume, growth of the mother’s tissues, development of the baby fetus, and the loss of mother’s tissues at birth. Proper pregnancy nutrition may reduce the risk of low or high birth weight, neural tube defects, and growth retardation. Well-nourished pregnant women who gain an appropriate amount of weight show the greatest likelihood of giving birth to a baby with a healthier weight, which is the best predictor for immediate and long term health for the baby. Unfortunately, eating sufficient well-balanced nutrition can be very challenging for most pregnant women, and this is where supplementation becomes very important to fill in any nutritional gaps. For this reason, most health care professionals will recommend a prenatal multivitamin supplement for nutritional support. Designed by leading nutritional scientists and registered dieticians, the Sweet Momma® Grow prenatal supplement system provides the Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) for essential nutrients, to complement a healthy, balanced diet.
Grow Prenatal supplements provide excellent nutritional support for promoting fetal development, and set the stage for a healthy baby.

The capsules come in an easy-to-swallow format, and are free of synthetic dyes and sweeteners, gluten, glucose, wheat and yeast. Our supplements are suitable for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians.
Lactation nutrition is of key importance during a new baby's development, whereby the expecting mother’s nutritional requirements are increased to meet the demands of breastmilk production. A well nourished mother will support her body's production of healthy milk, which is of utmost importance to the child. It is critical that the mother eat well and consume enough foods from each of the four food groups for complete nutrition and adequate calories. However, hectic lifestyles along with many other variables can make this very challenging, potentially setting the stage for nutrition inadequacies. Nutritional planning with a balanced, evidence based multivitamin and mineral supplement can be instrumental in filling in the nutritional gaps. Designed by leading nutritional scientists and registered dieticians, the Sweet Momma® Nourish preconception supplement system provides the Dietary Reference Intake (DR) for essential nutrients, to complement a healthy, balanced diet.
Nourish Lactation supplements provide excellent nutritional support for breastfeeding mothers, and help ensure a healthy baby. The dose and ratio of the nutrients helps to correct nutritional inadequacies, and the included DHA supplement provides essential Omega-3 fats. The capsules come in an easy-to-swallow format, and are free of synthetic dyes and sweeteners, gluten, glucose, wheat and yeast. Our supplements are suitable for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians.
Omega-3 essential fats are 'essential' in that they are required in our diets—our bodies can not produce them from other nutrients. Unfortunately, the average intake of these fats by most North Americans has dropped tenfold over the last century. Studies show that these fats are very beneficial to heart, cognitive and emotional health, and as awareness of the omega fats increases, their benefits are being realized. Docosahexaenoic acid, or DHA, is a long chain omega-3 fatty acid. DHA is critical during pregnancy, particularly in supporting healthy brain and visual development. Maternal supplementation with DHA during pregnancy or nursing significantly increases the availability of DHA to the fetus and infant. Without sufficient DHA intake, the mother's body draws upon her own supply—the brain, in particular—to augment the supply made available to the baby via the placenta and later via breastmilk. Therefore, the intake of essential fatty acids becomes doubly important during and after pregnancy. Some studies have shown the following benefits to infants with maternal DHA supplementation:
Fish and seafood are the chief dietary sources of omega-3 fats, but ocean contaminants can cause accumulation of heavy metals and PCB's in many of these marine foods. The Sweet Momma® DHA supplement features Life’s DHA by Martek, produced from algae and is a non-genetically-modified, vegetarian source of DHA. This form is produced under the strictest levels of quality control, and since it is plant derived it contains no ocean-borne pollutants. Life’s DHA is accepted by the Food and Drug Administration in the United States for use in infant formulas.
