NATURELOPrenatal Multivitamin with Gentle Chelated Iron, Methyl Folate, Plant Calcium & Choline - Vegan, Vegetarian - Non-GMO - Gluten Free - 180 Capsules - 2 Month Supply

TRUE REVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!I have been taking this product consistently for two weeks. Don’t mind the messages regarding the taste or smell. There is no taste. There is a slight smell, but it is absolutely tolerable. The comments about the horrific smell is honestly exaggeration when I read those comments.FIRST, before I got pregnant, I would honestly have to take laxatives to go to the bathroom. That was my fear on becoming pregnant. I thought I was going to be so backed up. I am 35 and have two other children. By day three I was going to the bathroom “naturally” is how I tell my husband. It’s amazing what natural remedies can do for the body. I will definitely consider taking this brand as a multivitamin even after I am pregnant just because now I am honestly regulated with my digestive system. I’m going to the bathroom twice or even three times a day (not diarrhea, just normal). I can’t even tell you the last time I went to the bathroom two times in one day “naturally”I have been a vegetarian for over 15 years. so finding a product like this, I feel really change my life for the future.Second.. skin my skin is glowing! Not pregnancy glowing, like hydrated, feels so smooth, these pills naturally have given me 10 year old skin!!!!I am a normal person. I am not paid for this review. I took the time to write an exciting review because this product is amazing and I guarantee you will be happy.

I was researching healthier brands of prenatal vitamins for my daughter who wants to start a family soon and came across this brand. I love the natural ingredients. I decided to take them too. After about 3-4 weeks, I really started feeling energized. I highly recommend this product.

These have been great during my pregnancy!

UPDATE: I received a replacement bottle directly from Naturelo after my interaction with their customer service folks. I was confused and intrigued by this new 'scent tab' attached to the neck. So I opened the new bottle and it smelled rank and ripe as expected, but even more so because it was fresh! The scent tab reminded me more of a lemon disinfectant than a delicious sun-washed citrus or flavor of any kind. I popped it in the bottle for science and left it for a few days. I checked later and, wouldn't you know, it smelled like butt and pine-sol.So I guess the tab and the fancy packaging were well-intentioned but poorly executed. I mean, what does it say that you have to provide an air freshener with your edible product? And I've taken organic, whole food multis in the past that didn't make me take a step back when I got a faint whiff. I don't remember why I started taking these, but it's time to move on because this ain't working out. At all.ORIGINAL REVIEW: I started taking these after my doctor advised it rather than the insane collection of supplements I'd amassed over time. I'd read the negative reviews about the fishy smell, but the problem seemed to have to been corrected. Plus, I wasn't about to get pregnant and figured I could swallow pretty much anything if I did it quickly.For quite some time, I had no issues. (I never had that yellow vitamin pee, but figured that was a good thing? Idk.) The other day, it happened. Just opening the bottle almost made me gag. I've let it sit out, open, in case the air will waft the scent away. Spoiler alert: it's not working.I emailed Naturelo and got back a very flippant, condescending reply from a clearly outsourced customer service agent. Basically, I needed to put on my big girl panties and deal with the smell because that's just a sign of quality ingredients. Or just keep it in the fridge because that'll make it go away. Yeah, a sealed bottle in a cold box whose only job is to PRESERVE things.This is why I usually buy things on Amazon. Here, I can return most stuff no questions asked and for free. Naturelo requires the customer to pay shipping for returning their high quality product that you can't open without wanting to barf. I guess I'll start my prenatal vitamin search/research all over again.

I was worried about the smell after reading all the reviews. The pills do smell somewhat but if you really smell them, you’ll understand they smell like seaweed or algae which is the source of one of the vitamins. This is a NATURAL source of the vitamin and means that you aren’t getting something that is synthetic. For those that are also worried, they don’t actually taste like they smell. There is no flavor to them. I think the issue of the smell could be resolved if the company did these in a gel pill instead of a capsule. I like that these have natural sources of vitamins and minerals. In the synthetic form, some of these vitamins can actually be dangerous once you reach a certain level but your body needs more during pregnancy. It’s a win/win. I also like that these contain a wider array of vitamins and minerals compared to other prenatal out there. I do use the NOW brand with DHA however, those are on back order and needed a replacement prenatal. This one fit the bill for most of the same array as well as being made with the natural sources. I already take Baby and Me 2 Choline/DHA to stack my Choline intake so I don’t have an issue with the DHA being removed in this prenatal. My dogs take fish oil pills and I just added one of those to replace what the Now brand has in it. I also take Inositol and Berberine as supplements with this. For reference, I have PCOS and have had pretty crazy menstrual cycles after a miscarriage 9 months ago but also was getting extra long cycles since post pregnancy 3 years ago. Between pairing a great prenatal with the Inositol/Berberine, my body is back to a normal schedule like before I had my son. I’m now ovulating with upwards of 12-15 eggs a month (at 38 y/o) and my Reproductive Endocrinologist stated everything looks great with my ovaries and reproductive system now. I attribute this to a high quality prenatal which goes a long way to help prep the body to be ready to get pregnant. I’ll update if I do end up getting pregnant again and how long that takes me so you have a reference on these pills. I will be trying for the first time post miscarriage next month. Until then, happy healthy pregnancies and baby dust to all those trying.
