Last year, when I was pregnant with Hudson, I decided to do something different…
I started taking prenatal vitamins.
I hadn’t done that with my previous pregnancies—mostly because prenatals always made me nauseous.
And honestly… I’ve always believed you can get most of what you need from a real, organic, nutrient-dense diet.
But this time felt different.
“Advanced maternal age.” 🫣
So I did.
I chose an organic, “clean,” highly rated prenatal gummy—one of the most popular ones on Amazon.
Felt like a safe choice.
Until I found out…
it contained lead.
The very thing I was taking to protect my baby…
was exposing him to a neurotoxin.
I wanted Hudson bulletproof—
just not like that.
That’s when I started following Lead Safe Mama, LLC
And what I found honestly changed the way I look at everything.
“Organic.”
“Clean.”
“Natural.”
These words don’t mean what most people think they mean.
Because a lot of these products—
even the “good ones”—
are still contaminated with heavy metals.
And it doesn’t stop at supplements.
It’s in foods people think are healthy too.
Farm-raised fish is loaded with contaminants.
Even some wild-caught options have high mercury levels.
We tell people to eat more fish for omega-3s (and yes—they’re incredibly anti-inflammatory and important)…
But the reality is:
you often have to pay a premium for properly tested, low-toxin sources.
I recommend eating wild-caught fish—these are generally safer choices:
• Wild salmon
• Sardines
• Anchovies
• Cod
Because the smaller the fish and the shorter its lifespan… the less time it has to accumulate toxins.
