Prenatal
Alani Nu Prenatal is an 'Other Combinations' supplement, despite being categorized under Joint & Bone, and holds an N+ Score of 68, earning a C- (average) grade. This product contains 21 ingredients, demonstrating 100% label transparency. It delivers several key nutrients at clinically studied dosages, including Vitamin A (1500mcg RAE), Vitamin C (60mg), Vitamin E (27mg), Vitamin B1 (5mg), and Vitamin B2 (5mg). However, certain ingredients such as Vitamin D3, Calcium (46mg), and Iron (5mg) are identified as underdosed relative to common prenatal recommendations.
