Consumer Reports Evaluation Validates Bird&Be Prenatal Standards
A recent Consumer Reports investigation into 17 prenatal vitamins revealed significant inconsistencies in nutrient levels across the industry. Amidst these findings, the Bird&Be Complete Prenatal Pack emerged as a reliable option, successfully meeting all label claims regarding its folate content and essential nutrient profile.
Beyond basic formulation, the brand operates within GMP-certified facilities and holds Clean Label Project Certification to ensure compliance with Proposition 65 standards for heavy metals. Samantha Diamond, CEO and co-founder of Bird&Be, noted that the Consumer Reports data underscores a necessary shift toward higher transparency in the category. The company’s products are currently distributed through its direct website, Amazon, and Ulta retail locations.
