Agree with most here, it is usually better to avoid self-medicating with heavy supplements. Better to just ask your gynecologist about your daily prenatal vitamins instead.
I always check supplement labels carefully because many have added synthetic ingredients or high dosages not suitable for pregnancy. You can easily get all your Vitamin C from a clean vegetarian diet of bell peppers, guavas, and citrus fruits without any risk.
Hi! Congrats on the pregnancy! 🌸 Honestly, those packets have a super high dose of Vitamin C which might be too much right now. Better to stick to fresh lime juice, it is refreshing and totally natural! 🍋
Actually, I was looking up the same thing for my wife last week. From what I read, Emergen-C has around 1000mg of Vitamin C, which is way higher than the recommended daily intake for pregnant women. We decided to skip it entirely.
I am just in my first trimester and feeling very confused about what is safe. My cousin suggested these packets for energy, but I am too scared to try them. Does anyone know if our standard Indian prenatal tablets already have enough Vitamin C?
