| As is true with vitamins, most minerals are safe (and even required) during pregnancy. Minerals have a relatively narrower safety margin than do vitamins, but still significantly broader than do almost all pharmaceutical drugs. Unless research has specifically addressed a mineral's relative safety during pregnancy, it is not advisable to take amounts beyond what would be in a normal, healthy diet. If you are pregnant, be sure and discuss any supplement or herbal product you are considering with your healthcare provider. | |
