fertil F phase 2

We have enhanced the well known amitamin® fertil F even further. Two different products are now optimised for the two phases. amitamin® fertil F phase 1 is for women who have the desire to become pregnant and until third month of pregnancy. amitamin® fertil F phase 2 is ideal for women durcing pregnancy and until end of lactation:

amitamin® fertil F phase 1:

• contains 800 µg folate, with bioactive folate (Quatrefolic®) as well as folic acid,
• great formula for the time from before pregnancy until third month of pregnancy,
• with 12 vitamins and 8 trace elements and minderals,
• 21 micro nutrients - in just 1 capsule a day!

amitamin® fertil F phase 2:

• with 600 µg folate, bioactive folate (Quatrefolic®) as well as folic acid,
• perfect for the time from around third month to end of lactation,
• includes essential omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA,
• a total of 12 vitamins and 10 trace elements and minerals.

amitamin® fertil F phase 2 contains folic acid as well as the bioactive folate Quatrefolic®. It was developed for the special nutritional needs of women during pregnancy and lactation. At this crucial time in the life of a woman, nutrient intake requirements are significantly higher for most of the vitamins and trace elements. For the unborn and breastfeeding baby, it is extremely important to get the right amount of micro nutrients from his mother. During these early months in life, many of the developments of nerves, brain and body require a sufficient supply of vitamins, trace elements and minerals.

Take amitamin® fertil F - because your baby deserves a perfect start!

Eight good reasons why every woman should take amitamin® fertil F before pregnancy through to the end of lactation:

1. By taking this supplement before pregnancy, folic acid levels should be optimal to support a healthy pregnancy. Low folate levels in the second and third weeks of gestation are associated with an increased risk of neural tube defects in the unborn child.
2. Contains 150 mg of L-carnitine, a crucial amino acid needed for energy production.
3. Contains 550 mg of omega-3 fatty acids (DHA, EPA). These fatty acids are important for supporting the development of the brain during pregnancy and throughout breastfeeding. Omega-3 fatty acids also help with the development of healthy eyes.
4. Contains 50mg Citrus Bioflavonoid, a potent natural antioxidant to safeguard against free radical damage.
5. Contains 2,000 micrograms of beta-carotene, essential for eye health and protection against free radicals.
6. Contains 20 micrograms vitamin D; the recommended daily dose according to the latest scientific studies. Vitamin D is largely absent from the diet and is otherwise only formed through the skin following sunlight exposure.
7. Comprehensive orthomolecular formula containing folic acid, biotin, zinc, iron and copper, plus many other high-dose natural vitamins, minerals and trace elements. These are essential for the immune system, nerves, skin and hair growth.
8. Free from fillers, gluten, lactose and artificial sweeteners. Individually packaged capsules for optimum hygiene.

Each pack contains 120 individually wrapped capsules, intended for a one month's supply of balanced micronutrients. Available conveniently here in the online store.

amitamin® fertil F comes in two variants: amitamin® fertil F phase 1 supports you and your child from conception until the end of the first trimester. amitamin® fertil F phase 2 is optimised for the period from pregnancy to the end of breastfeeding.

amitamin® fertil F phase 1 has been developed on the basis of recommendations from nutritionists and professional associations to accompany women from the time of conception to the end of the first trimester. With just one capsule daily, the nutrients and especially folic acid contained in amitamin® fertil F phase 1 make a particularly important contribution to the health of both expecting mother and child. We recommend switching to amitamin® fertil F phase 2 at the latest by the end of the first trimester.

amitamin® fertil F phase 2 is optimised for possibly the two most important times in the life of a woman: pregnancy and lactation. It contains an appropriate composition and dosage of vitamins, trace elements, minerals and in particular the valuable omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA. Due to the extensive formula and the increased micronutrient requirement, a daily dose of amitamin® fertil F phase 2 consists of four capsules (two dry capsules, two oil capsules).

amitamin® fertil F phase 1 and amitamin® fertil F phase 2 contain both folic acid and folate in a more bioavailable form as Quatrefolic® (6(S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolicacid glucosamine salt).

Why should I start taking amitamin® fertil F phase 1 before a pregnancy is confirmed?

The vitamins contained in amitamin® fertil F can contribute to a healthy immune system, hormone balance, healthy nerves and energy metabolism (details below) even before pregnancy. In addition, the body’s own vitamin stores are filled up in time for the pregnancy. An adequate supply of folic acid to the mother before pregnancy is particularly important. A low folic acid level in the expecting mother’s blood is a risk factor for neural tube defects (spina bifida) in the developing fetus. These severe malformations of the spinal cord and brain already develop during the second and third week of pregnancy –often before the expecting mother even knows she is pregnant.

The intake of additional folic acid increases folic acid levels in the blood. This contributes to a reduction in the risk of neural tube defects in the fetus.Women who want to have children should therefore start taking folic acid at least one month before possible conception.They should also not stop doing so before the
beginning of the second trimester.

Why do amitamin® fertil F phase 1 and phase 2 contain both folic acid and folate (Quatrefolic®)?

Folic acid is the precursor of folate, which is active in the body. Folate is a B vitamin (B9), which is particularly important for cell division and for the growth of uterine tissue.
An adequate supply of folate is important at least four weeks before conception. Not every woman, however, can sufficiently convert folic acid into folate, which can be effectively used by the body.

Therefore, both amitamin® fertil F phase 1 and amitamin® fertil F phase 2 contain folic acid as well as activated folate (Quatrefolic®).This activated folate is immediately bioavailable to the body. A good supply of folate for all users is therefore assured.

When should I switch from amitamin® fertil F phase 1 to amitamin® fertil F phase 2?

Based on generally accepted recommendations for the supply of micronutrients during pregnancy, you should switch from amitamin® fertil F phase 1 to amitamin® fertil F phase 2 towards the end of the first trimester between week eight and week twelve.

Why does amitamin® fertil F phase 2 also contain omega-3 fatty acids (DHA and EPA)?

The omega-3 fatty acids DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) are particularly important to the human organism. These special fatty acids can be consumed in sufficient quantities by eating fish, especially high-fat sea fish.The body is not able to produce the special fatty acids DHA and EPA itself. However, DHA and EPA make an important contribution to the health of the mother and in particular to the unborn and breastfed child.

The consumption of DHA by the expecting mother supports the development of the fetus and infant’s brain and eyes. In addition to the recommended daily intake of 250 mg omega-3 fatty acids, an expecting mother should take a further 200 mg DHA. amitamin® fertil F phase 2 contains 550 mg omega-3 fatty acids, or 200 mg DHA and 300 mg EPA in each daily dose.

Why is the targeted supplementation of vitamins, trace elements and omega-3 fatty acids especially recommended for expecting mothers?

Pregnancy is a special stage in a woman’s life. The time from the fertilised egg’s cell first cell division of right up until the end of breastfeeding is characterised by particularly high nutritional demands. At times, pregnant women have a significantly increased demand for many vitamins and trace elements.

Generally, however, the calorie requirement during pregnancy is only about 15% higher than normal. A healthy diet during pregnancy is therefore mainly characterised by an increased supply of vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Food supplements are able to help in this particulartime to eliminate any nutritional deficits and to meet the special dietary needs during this time.

How should I take amitamin® fertil F phase 2?

Take four capsules daily, two dry capsules and two oil capsules with a glass of water or juice before or during a meal.

amitamin® fertil F phase 2 is generally very well tolerated. Please be sure to take the capsules before or during a meal. In rare cases of indigestion, please split the daily dose into two intakes per day of 2 capsules each.

How long should you take amitamin® fertil F phase 2?

The product is suitable for long-term use and can be taken throughout the period of pregnancy and lactation.Taking a dietary supplement with folic acid is generally recommended before pregnancy and until the end of breastfeeding. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that infants should be breastfeed until the end of the 6th month.

What other functions do micronutrients contained inamitamin® fertil F phase 2 have?

• Folic acid contributes to the normal growth of maternal tissue during pregnancy. In addition, folic acid has a function in cell division, i.e. the growth processes. Supplementing folic acid increases the folate level in pregnant women. A low folate level in pregnant women is a risk factor for the development of neural tube defects in the growing fetus. In women of childbearing age, the positive effect of folic acid supplementation is achieved by supplementing 400 μg of folic acid daily for a period of at least one month before and up to three months after conception.
  However, neural tube defects can also have causes other than an inadequate supply of folic acid. Increasing the folate level may therefore not always prevent the development of neural tube defects.
• Iodine and selenium contribute to normal production of thyroid hormones and support thyroid function. During pregnancy, the need for iodine is increased.T he intake of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) by the mother from the 13th week of pregnancy (2nd trimester) contributes to the normal development of brain and eyes in the fetus and breast-fed infant. Note for pregnant and breastfeeding women: a positive effect is achieved with a daily intake of 200 mg DHA, in addition
  to the recommended daily omega-3 fatty acid intake of 250 mg docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA).
• The vitamins B6, B12 and niacin and iron contained in amitamin® fertil F help to reduce fatigue.
• Vitamins C, D, folic acid, B6 and B12 as well as the trace elements zinc, selenium and copper contribute to the normal function of the immune system.
• Vitamin B2 (riboflavin), biotin and niacin contribute to the preservation of normal mucous membranes (e.g.intestinal mucous membrane and mucous membranes
  in the bladder tract).
• Vitamins C, E, B2 (riboflavin) and the trace elements zinc, selenium, copper and manganese contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
• Calcium and vitamin D3 contribute to maintaining healthy bones.
