Supplementing with 400-800 mcg of folic acid significantly reduces the incidence of neural tube defects.

Omeg-3 fatty acid EPA & DHA
EPA supports the heart and immune system and DHA plays an important role in the development of brain, eyes, and central nervous system. Recommended dose is 500 mg/day of EPA & DHA combined with 200 mg coming from DHA.
Lean Protein
While a baby is developing, your need for protein goes up. Soy, egg whites, lean meats, and non or low-fat milk.
Vitamin A
Vitamin A is essential for immune function as well as reproductive and fetal health.  Experts recommend supplementing with 2500 to 8000 IUs per day.
