Needed

Needed is an expert-backed nutrition platform that's optimally nourishing women before, during, and after pregnancy. Needed is backed by the latest clinical research and a collective of perinatal nutrition practitioners that regularly test women's nutrient and hormone levels to know exactly what's needed. Women-founded, Certified B-Corp, Climate Neutral-Certified. Most prenatal vitamins just aren't cutting it-they are made to meet bare minimum needs, not to optimally nourish a woman and her baby. 97% of women take a prenatal during pregnancy, and yet 95% of mamas-to-be have nutrient deficiencies. We started Needed to change this through products that truly work, and that address underserved areas of women's health including postpartum depression.  Needed was founded by Julie Sawaya and Ryan Woodbury, two Stanford MBAs, lifelong nutrition nerds, and moms.
