WeNatal Launches the First 3-in-1 Protein Powder for the Entire Parenthood Journey
HEALTH & BEAUTY
WeNatal has announced the launch of Protein +, the first doctor-formulated 3-in-1 protein powder for both moms and dads-to-be.
The field of prenatal nutrition is undergoing a critical upgrade. WeNatal, the evidence-based supplement brand dedicated to holistic fertility and prenatal support for both partners, has just announced the launch of Protein +, the first doctor-formulated 3-in-1 protein powder designed specifically for the complete journey, from fertility and pregnancy to postpartum recovery.
This innovative product tackles a major gap in traditional prenatal care. While standard prenatal vitamins focus on micronutrients, they often overlook the increased need for macronutrients like protein and collagen, which are crucial during this time.
Addressing the Hidden Protein Gap
Research from the National Institute of Health shows that roughly one in eight pregnant women fails to meet their daily protein requirements, a figure based on potentially outdated estimates. Modern science suggests the need for protein and amino acids skyrockets during the second and third trimesters to support fetal growth, hormone production, and maternal tissue repair.
Protein + solves this challenge by combining three essential components in a single scoop:
A Complete Prenatal/Preconception Multivitamin Blend
Grass-Fed Whey Protein
Collagen Peptides
“Wellness doesn't have to be overwhelming,” said Dr. Demeri, ND, IFMCP, WeNatal’s Medical Advisor. “We created WeNatal Protein + to make daily nourishment simple and effective, combining essential nutrients, protein, and collagen in one scoop so women and men can stay consistent and feel the results.
Why Whey and Quality Matter
WeNatal selected grass-fed whey protein for its superior profile. Whey is recognized as the most bioavailable and complete protein, rich in leucine, which is vital for muscle synthesis and tissue repair. This bioavailable nature is gentle on digestion, a key factor for women experiencing food aversions or nausea in early pregnancy.
The brand also addresses consumer concerns over purity. While some plant-based proteins have recently tested higher for heavy metals like lead and cadmium due to soil absorption, WeNatal's grass-fed whey consistently tests significantly lower. Protein + is third-party tested and verified to stay below California Prop 65 thresholds, offering peace of mind to ingredient-conscious parents.
Each serving delivers a robust 20 grams of total protein and includes bovine collagen peptides to support gut health, muscle recovery, and skin elasticity.
An Inclusive Approach to Family Health
True to the brand's founding mission, to shift the fertility journey from "me" to "we", Protein + comes in two targeted formulations:
WeNatal for Her Protein +: The blend supports fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum recovery. Co-Founder Ronit Menashe noted, "So many women told us they couldn't stomach their prenatals early in pregnancy. We wanted to make something that fully nourishes you, even on the hardest days."
WeNatal for Him Protein +: A distinct men's multivitamin, protein, and collagen blend designed to optimize sperm health, energy, and muscle performance, ensuring fathers-to-be are also nourished.
Available in a smooth vanilla bean flavor, Protein + is non-GMO, gluten-free, and soy-free, offering an enjoyable way to meet daily nutrient needs with uncompromising, evidence-based nutrition.
