Needed Vitamins And Minerals
What vitamins and minerals need to be increased during pregnancy?

What vitamins and minerals would pregnant women need to increase their intake of while they're pregnant? This is a question for my nutritional chemistry class and I can't find a good answer on line or in my book. Any help would be appreciated.

There are some ingredients that are now considered standard in prenatal vitamins such as a greater amount of folic acid (folate), iron and calcium. This is a quote from the third reference below. I hope that this helps.
