GNC Prenatal Formula

I 'm running out of Blackmores Conceive Well. I had intended to buy a second box but my company recently gave me Taka vouchers as a wedding gift. So, I spent it at the GNC in Taka shopping center. I bought the prenatal formula for myself and mega men supplement for Hubby.


There's quite a difference between GNC and Blackmores pills as I go through the ingredients. Hope it's a better change :)
