Why is there less B12 in the Complete Prenatal Pack?Updated 17 hours ago

We understand why you’d want clarity on this change and want to reassure you that the original amount of Vitamin B12 in our Prenatal Essentials for Females was well within safe limits for pregnancy. It was approved under Health Canada’s guidelines, passed a rigorous formula approval process, and was thoroughly reviewed by our medical team and board of advisors. There is no evidence linking that amount to any pregnancy risks, developmental risks, or other health concerns, and it remains Health-Canada approved for safety.

The recent update to our Complete Prenatal Pack formula was not made due to any safety concerns. In fact, the B12 amount in our Gentle Prenatal Pack formula has remained the same at 1000 mcg. The small reduction in B12 for this product was part of a broader adjustment where we slightly reduced a few nutrients to make the formula gentler on sensitive stomachs and improve manufacturing consistency—while still fully meeting the nutritional needs for fertility and pregnancy.

We regularly review the latest research and customer feedback to ensure our formulas are safe, effective, and comfortable to take. Your health and the health of your baby remain our highest priority, and our team is always here to answer any questions along your journey.
