Are there preferred formulations perhaps described at review articles at peer reviewed publications

I noticed that similac now groups 200 mg of the omega 3 lipid DHA docosahexanoic acid with 6 mg of lutein as a prenatal vitamin that government workers may have available to distribute. There are numerous peer reviewed articles about the benefits of DHA. Choline is also published as permanently raising the cognitive abilities of mammals that receive it prenatally, there are prenatal vitamins with choline. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.110.194.205 (talk) 19:50, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

studies support arginine supplementation during pregnancy

[edit]

Prenatal supplementation with the amino acid arginine is published at a metaanalysis [DOI: 10.1007/s00726-013-1515-z] as "L-arginine increased birth weight and prolonged gestational age at labor of IUGR fetuses." and also has numerous non-human studies supporting better natal outcome.

Related to arginine is N-carbamylglutamate NCG has support as improving pregnancy and neonate well being at a variety of veterinary references. "Maternal NCG supplementation significantly increased the number of total fetuses and live fetuses on day 28 of gestation by 1.32 and 1.29, respectively (P < 0.05), with a significant decrease in embryonic mortality (P < 0.05)." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26290006 I do not know of any human studies yet.

Potential citation/referece

[edit]

"Category leaders utilize this as the dosage form of choice.[citation needed]."

Most of these "category leaders" for recommended dosage amounts can be found on factsheets developed by the NIH, Office of Dietary Supplements, the CDC (on Folic Acid), and The Journal of Obstetrical and Gynecological Survey.
