Prenatal vitamins in an easier daily format
Pregnancy nutrition matters, but large tablets, changing appetite and busy mornings can make a daily prenatal routine harder to maintain.
Optivance Prenatal Vitamin Shake is a Food for Special Medical Purposes, formulated for the dietary management of increased nutritional requirements during preconception and pregnancy. It brings together pregnancy-specific amounts of folate, iodine, iron, DHA omega-3, protein, fibre, probiotics, collagen peptides and selected vitamins and minerals together in one easy-to-prepare smoothie sachet.
It offers a practical food-format option for women who prefer a smoothie as part of their daily routine rather than relying only on tablets and capsules.
Prenatal Vitamin Shake is designed to complement a varied diet. Continue taking any supplements specifically recommended for you by your GP, obstetrician, midwife, pharmacist or accredited practising dietitian.

How it fits into pregnancy days
Pregnancy routines do not always run neatly to plan. Changing appetite, early starts, work, appointments and family life can all make consistency more difficult.
Prenatal Vitamin Shake can be included:
- alongside breakfast or another usual meal
- as part of a morning pregnancy nutrition routine
- before work or appointments
- when travelling or away from home
- when you want selected prenatal nutrients in a simple smoothie format
It is a supplementary food intended to complement your diet and should not be used as a meal replacement.
