Our high-quality postnatal multivitamins were carefully developed using peer-reviewed studies that reflect the latest research in postnatal nutrition. The formula development was led by our Medical Advisor and board-certified OBGYN, Dr. Kenosha Gleaton, and an award-winning registered dietitian-nutritionist and specialist in fertility, Lauren Manaker, RD.

Our postpartum multivitamin formula was formulated to fill key postpartum dietary needs and can help meet the the higher daily values of choline, selenium, and iodine needed for breastfeeding moms post-pregnancy and during lactation.

Natalist Postnatal Vitamins were specifically formulated to support breast milk quality and help meet the nutritional needs of breastfeeding babies: 

• A great deal of the brain’s capacity is shaped before the age of three years. Natalist Postnatal Vitamin was formulated with key nutrients to help support baby’s brain development and brain function.‡
• With 400 mg of choline bitartrate, Natalist Postnatal Vitamin helps support normal and healthy brain development in babies when taken during the first 1,000 days of life.‡
• Includes 200mg of plant-based DHA to support baby's brain development.‡

Natalist Postnatal Vitamins contain a variety of B vitamins, including 3 mcg of Vitamin B12 to support mom’s energy levels.‡ With 5 mg of high bioavailable iron, Postnatal Vitamins can help support healthy blood levels after delivery.‡

All of our vitamins are made in an FDA Registered and Inspected Facility, which meets or exceeds FDA 21 CFR 111 guidelines.

In addition to testing the raw material components of our vitamins to ensure their purity and accuracy, we also test each batch after it is produced to ensure final product integrity and quality. Testing includes a chemical analysis to ensure accuracy, a microbial analysis (salmonella, E. coli, yeast, and mold) and a heavy metals test (including arsenic, cadmium, and lead). 

Our postnatal vitamins are free of artificial and synthetic dyes. Additionally, our postnatal vitamins are manufactured under strict procedures to ensure there is no cross-contamination during manufacturing and storage.

Along with 88% of polled scientists, Natalist believes that the majority of genetically modified foods are safe. That said, we also believe that bioengineered ingredients should be clearly labeled so that consumers can make an informed purchase decision. Transparency is essential in building trust between brands and consumers. Our products clearly state if they do or do not contain genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
