Pregnancy & Postnatal Supplements

From the first weeks of pregnancy to the months after birth, your nutritional needs change at every stage. This collection brings together our pregnancy and postnatal supplements, each developed with IVF experts and drawing on more than 40 years of Zita West's experience.

The Vital Essence range is formulated trimester by trimester, using Active Folate (Quatrefolic®), and Revital Essence supports recovery and breastfeeding after birth. Vital DHA provides Omega-3 throughout, as maternal DHA intake contributes to normal brain and eye development of the foetus and breastfed infants, and Vitamin D Spray, Choline and Psyllium Husk add targeted support. Our pregnancy and postnatal packs bring the key products together for each stage.

Frequently asked questions

Why choose trimester-specific pregnancy vitamins?
Your baby's development, and your own needs, change from one trimester to the next. A trimester-specific formula adjusts the nutrients at each stage and avoids high doses of vitamins such as Vitamin A, which standard multivitamins are not designed to manage for pregnancy.
When should I switch to the next Vital Essence?

Move to Vital Essence 2 at the start of your second trimester (week 13) and to Vital Essence 3 from week 27. After birth, switch to Revital Essence. Our first trimester, second trimester and third trimester nutrition guides explain what changes at each stage.

Do I need Vital DHA as well?
We recommend it. Maternal DHA intake contributes to normal brain and eye development of the foetus and breastfed infants, and Vital DHA is designed to be taken alongside each Vital Essence formula.
What should I take after giving birth?
Revital Essence is our postnatal multivitamin, formulated for the first 12 months after birth and suitable while breastfeeding. Many women continue Vital DHA alongside it, and the NHS advises breastfeeding mothers to consider a daily 10µg Vitamin D supplement.
