OmegaMe Prenatal

The OmegaMe Prenatal dietary supplement is dedicated primarily to pregnant and breastfeeding women, hence the 700 mg of DHA.

• DHA is an important component of brain cells, responsible for the proper development of this organ.
• The DHA omega‑3 fatty acid consumed by the mother positively affects the development of the brain both in the fetus and in breast‑fed children.
• For the baby, the source of DHA is… the mother! During the pregnancy, this ingredient reaches the fetus through the placenta. Later, it also passes into the mother’s milk. Therefore, the demand for the DHA omega‑3 fatty acid in pregnant and breastfeeding women is increased.

EPA mainly affects inflammation. DHA also demonstrates anti‑inflammatory properties, but to a lesser extent than EPA.

OmegaMe Prenatal is one of the few products on the market with such a high DHA content, so it stands out among other omega‑3 products.

When it comes to the quality and safety of our products, compromise is not an option. Therefore, all Health Labs Care supplements are tested for mold, yeast, bacteria, including Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella, as well as their PAH (total benzo[a]anthracene, benzo[b]fluoranthene, chrysene, and benzo[a]pyrene) and heavy metal (lead, cadmium, mercury) content.

Each batch of every supplement is tested in an independent, certified laboratory: J. S Hamilton Poland, which complies with the highest quality standards, confirmed by the Polish Center for Accreditation and by its continued membership in Polish and international associations such as FOSFA (Federation of Oils, Seeds and Fats Associations) and GAFTA (Grain and Feed Trade Association)

The demand for DHA in pregnant women is higher than in the general population, and what is more, the fetus’s demand for this ingredient significantly increases in the 3rd trimester. The DHA and EPA omega‑3 fatty acids are recommended for pregnant and breastfeeding women by the Polish Society of Gynecologists and Obstetricians. An adequate supply of DHA in these periods promotes healthy cell development (especially in neurons), which is beneficial for the baby’s vision and psychomotor development. As it may be more difficult for pregnant women to ensure adequate supply of DHA from food (e.g. in Poland, which is one of the countries with the lowest fish consumption), supplementation is worth considering.

It is worth combining OmegaMe Prenatal with the LittleMe dietary supplement. This is a basic set of supplements that contains a number of ingredients recommended for pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as for those planning pregnancy.

Due to the iron content in the LittleMe dietary supplement, bear in mind the recommendations of the Polish Society of Gynecologists and Obstetricians:

• before the 16th gestational week (1st trimester), iron supplementation is only recommended for women with diagnosed iron‑deficiency anemia;
• after the 16th gestational week (2nd and 3rd trimester), it is recommended to supplement 30 mg of iron per day (that is exactly what LittleMe provides).

Before taking the OmegaMe Prenatal dietary supplement, consult your physician if you:

• have hemophilia or take anticoagulants,
• are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Do not use in the case of:

• allergy or hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients,
• excessive level of vitamin D3 in the body (hypervitaminosis),
• excessive calcium levels in the body (hypercalcemia) or any conditions affecting the calcium level,
• sarcoidosis.

If you experience steatorrhea, which can be caused by an excess of fats in your diet or problems with fat digestion, use the OmegaMe Prenatal every other day and observe how your body reacts. Once symptoms have subsided, you can return to the recommended dose (1 capsule a day).

We suggest you choose one. If you want to take OmegaMe Prenatal, it is best not to drink fish oil.

1. Start by checking if the supplement is stored properly and whether its PAO (period after opening) has not expired — in the latter case, it may have oxidated and gone rancid. If that happens, you must dispose of the product.
2. The burping problem may also be the result of pancreatic, gallbladder or duodenal (gastrointestinal) dysfunction. First, consult with your doctor to make sure your fat digestion is normal.
3. You can also try taking OmegaMe Prenatal after a light meal containing some fat.

The OmegaMe Prenatal dietary supplement can be taken at any time of the day, but we recommend taking it after a meal to ensure better digestion and biodistribution of fatty acids in the body.

This test measures the concentration of calcidiol, the first hydroxy‑derivative of vitamin D, to determine whether the patient has a sufficient intake of vitamin D. Knowing your vitamin D level is important to determine how much vitamin D is needed and what further diagnostics, if any, should be performed.

This test is particularly recommended when combining the supplement with other products containing vitamin D3.
