Chlorophyll has similar properties to hemoglobin which essential to your blood cells and carries oxygen through your body. My midwife recommended I take Chlorophyll at the same time as my iron supplement as they work well together.

What vitamins are bad for pregnancy?

For example, high doses of vitamin A, vitamin B6, vitamin C, vitamin D or vitamin E can be dangerous. It's best not to take these vitamins as supplements in pregnancy. It's also best to avoid foods that may be very high in vitamin A, including liver and liver products such as pâté.
