Salaam Nutritionals Halal Prenatal Gummy Multivitamins, Low Sugar, 800 mcg Folate, Methylcobalamin, with DHA (90 Count) New Taste and New Look

First thing I want to mention is that I am so excited these are halal. It seems any medicine you buy in the States is mixed with pork. And living in a small Panhandle town in Texas...well, my pickings are slim to none when it comes to anything halal.Second thing I want to mention, people were complaining about taste. Yes, it doesn't taste like Haribo Gummies. It's medicinal...it's vitamins. And keep in mind the consumers of this product are by and large *drum roll please* pregnant women. If anyone knows anything about pregnant women it's that our taste buds are a little off (pickles and ice cream...Italian panini with pumpkin spice ice coffee...etc) From experience so far, these are not the best tasting (but that is probably due to potency) and these are not the worst tasting either.If you find you can't stomach them during pregnancy (or even if you're not pregnant...I take prenatals when I'm not pregnant also) then maybe try a different halal/kosher or vegan brand. There are options, this one just happens to be the one I'm advocating for because I'm a satisfied customer.Now, the downside to this is that for almost $25 I get only a month's supply of prenatals. That is expensive for the quantity considering most other brands are $8-$10 for up to 2 month supply. I don't wish to sacrifice the quality for a better price but it puts Muslims, Jews or anyone with dietary restrictions in a hard spot. What if they can't afford it...then they are left with the option of compromising their beliefs on behalf of health or simply going without.I go back for labs in about 3 weeks (in shaa Allah) and will see how well these build in my system. If I don't see an improvement then I'll update my review to reflect that & if I go back and all is good then I will update my review to reflect that also. In addition to the lab update, I will also be updating any side effects (constipation, heartburn etc) that come with these. **note that just because I do or don't experience a side effect doesn't mean someone else won't or will. **JazakAllah khair to the company for making these.

My first pregnancy I ended up resorting to gummy prenatals because the prenatal pills prescribed by my doctor made me sick & were huge so it was not fun to swallow when I already had morning sickness. Three things important to me when I’m looking for a gummy supplement vs a pill. First obviously is I want the most nutrients I can get compared to the pill, not full of junk (artificial flavors, sweeteners, unnecessary ingredients that come with being a gummy), and flavor because I’m chewing it & not just swallowing it. These gummies are all of those things, great minimal ingredients in addition to the vitamins, sweetened with stevia vs corn syrup or sugars or yucky artificial sweeteners (specifically what I was loOking for in a gummy this time around because I don’t want my daily calories/carbs coming from my vitamins-perfect for keto!!), and they taste really good in my opinion for being a sugar free vitamin. So far I’ve purchased 2 bottles of these & as soon as more is in stock I’ll definitely purchase more until I no longer need prenatals. Also side note I feel like the company that makes these has great customer service & it’s obvious their customers are important to them, so that’s another bonus to me 😊 Absolutely recommend these!!!

I’ve tried several different prenatal vitamins with my last pregnancy, and I’ve finally found one that I am in love with. I only eat halal, so I’ve tried a few different vegetarian prenatals I’ve found at Whole Foods like Rainbow Light and their own brand, and Alive Prenatal Gummies which I’ve purchased on Amazon. But all of these were either way too hard to swallow, upset my stomach or taste horrible! So when I found a halal gummy prenatal I was ecstatic, did my research and bought it that night. This is the first gummy vitamin that does not taste like chalky vitamins crushed up! They actually taste good! Great for when you’re trying to conceive, while pregnant, and even postpartum! It has all the necessary vitamins an OB will recommend for a prenatal, even DHA! My only wish was that this was a Prime item, but it was delivered just as fast to me!! I will be definitely buying more inshaAllah! If you’re looking for the right Halal prenatal (even if you don’t care for Halal) this is the one! I will be recommending this to all my friends and family!

I really wanted to like these prenatal vitamins but honestly I’m struggling with even making it through the bottle. First in the description on here it says quantity 120 but in the bottle is actually 90. Then the description says take 3 a day but the directions on the bottle says take up to 4. (Where does that make sense for a vitamin, give me an exact number to take). Then the taste of these vitamins are really nauseating, they remind me of the old chewable flint stone vitamins in gummy form. I’m tempted to throw away the rest of this bottle and switch to my old prenatal vitamins. It’s sad because I really wanted to love these seeing as they are halal and it’s extremely difficult to find prenatal gummies without gelatin in the us.
