Important Facts

What Are Vitamins And Minerals?

Vitamins and minerals make people's bodies work properly. Although you get vitamins and minerals from the foods you eat every day, some foods have more vitamins and minerals than others. Vitamins fall into 2 categories: fat soluble and water soluble.

The fat-soluble vitamins — A, D, E, and K — dissolve in fat and can be stored in your body.

The water-soluble vitamins — C and the B-complex vitamins (such as vitamins B6, B12, niacin, riboflavin, and folate) — need to dissolve in water before your body can absorb them. Because of this, your body can't store these vitamins.

How Often Should I Take Multivitamin Supplements?

Any vitamin C or B that your body doesn't use as it passes through your system is lost (mostly when you urinate). So you need a fresh supply of these vitamins every day.

Whereas vitamins are organic substances (made by plants or animals), minerals are inorganic elements that come from the soil and water and are absorbed by plants or eaten by animals.

Your body needs larger amounts of some minerals, such as calcium, to grow and stay healthy. Other minerals like chromium, copper, iodine, iron, selenium, and zinc are called trace minerals because you only need very small amounts of them each day.

Prenatal Vitamins
  • Do I really need to take prenatal vitamins?
  • What's in multivitamin supplements that I can't get from food?
  • Is there anything that I won't get in prenatal vitamins? How do I choose a prenatal supplement that's right for me?
  • What if I mistakenly take two prenatal vitamins on the same day?
  • What can I do if I'm having trouble swallowing the pills?
  • What can I do if I think the pills are giving me an upset stomach?

If you're very tuned in to nutrition and regularly eat a broad range of foods, including meat, dairy products, fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes, your diet will provide almost all the nutrients you and your baby need. Realistically, though, most women — especially those in the throes of morning sickness — can benefit from taking prenatal vitamins and dietary supplements, preferably before they start trying to conceive.

Think of it as an insurance policy to make sure you're getting the right amount of certain important nutrients during pregnancy. And women with certain health issues, dietary restrictions, or pregnancy complications definitely need to take prenatal vitamins. This includes vegetarians and vegans, women who are lactose-intolerant or have certain other food intolerances, smokers and women who abuse other substances, women who are having twins or higher multiples, and women with certain blood disorders and certain chronic diseases.

What's in a nutritional supplement that I can't get from food?

If you're a stickler for nutrition, you may already be doing a pretty good job of getting what you need, but there are two crucial nutrients that most pregnant women don't get enough of from food alone: Folic acid.

Taking a dietary supplement is the only way to make sure you're getting the amount of folic acid you need each day. All medical authorities recommend a daily dose of 400 micrograms (mcg) starting at least a month before you begin trying to get pregnant and at least 600 mcg a day once you know you're pregnant. (And that's in addition to the folic acid you get from food, which is actually not as easy for your body to absorb as the synthetic kind in nutritional supplements.)
