What the Project Is
Needed is a complete nutritional system created for fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and women’s lifelong health. Born from the recognition that 95% of mothers are nutritionally depleted despite taking a prenatal, the project offers radically better nutrition through optimal nourishment. The approach is built on exhaustive clinical research and continuous testing by over 6,000 practitioners—from nutritionists to OB-GYNs—ensuring that every supplement is designed to meet the complex needs of women. With products ranging from the Complete Plan to the Starter Plan and various targeted supplements like Prenatal Multi Capsules, Prenatal Collagen Protein, and Prenatal Pre/Probiotics, Needed stands as a beacon for perinatal nutrition that challenges conventional prenatal vitamin standards. Every nutrient and form is vetted by perinatal experts and rigorously third-party tested so that quality and safety are never compromised.
Main Benefit
The project’s approach revolutionizes perinatal nutrition by focusing on:
- 95% of mothers experiencing nutritional depletion despite using prenatals.
- Collaboration with more than 6,000 practitioners to set a radically better standard.
- Uncompromising nutrient levels in each supplement.
- Third-party testing every product batch for guaranteed quality.
- A solid B Corp score of 87.3, emphasizing commitment to social and environmental responsibility.
Excellence in Perinatal Nutrition
The selection of products is specifically designed around the stages of life; whether it is fertility, pregnancy, or postpartum, each formulation supports optimal nourishment. For example, the Complete Plan provides a comprehensive nutritional system including Prenatal Multi, Collagen, Omega-3, and Pre/Probiotics—all carefully formulated to support both mother and baby. The Starter Plan, on the other hand, offers a radically better Prenatal Multi paired with sustainably sourced Omega-3 for foundational nutritional support. These offerings reflect the project’s commitment to addressing the challenges women face during critical periods by delivering targeted, effective supplements, and they are available with transparent pricing that underscores quality and accessibility… making a real difference in perinatal care.
From Research to Results
Driven by new research and clinical insights that continually challenge the bare minimum status quo, the project carefully reviews clinical studies to overcome research gaps. Leading practitioners contribute direct feedback based on thousands of women’s nutrient and hormone levels across fertility, pregnancy, and postnatal stages. The result is a line of supplements that work in harmony to bridge the nutritional gap left by traditional prenatal care. Through diligent research and a commitment to evidence-based practice, the project sets the standard for what proper nutritional support should be, ensuring that each product not only meets but exceeds expectations.
Commitment to Quality and Integrity
Every component of the nutritional system is designed with quality and integrity. The supplements are developed with uncompromising nutrient levels in mind, where every nutrient and form is carefully vetted by experienced perinatal experts. The brand’s products are always rigorously third-party tested, ensuring that what is on the label matches the quality required for optimal absorption and effective support. From prenatal vitamins to specialized formulations like Prenatal Collagen Protein and Prenatal Pre/Probiotics, each product is proof that quality and science can coexist while delivering premium nourishment for women at every stage of their lives.

Building a Radically Better Future
The project is more than just a range of supplements—it is a movement towards producing radically better nutritional outcomes for women. By integrating expert-backed educational content and offering direct access to practitioners, the initiative works to debunk misinformation and provide reliable nutritional advice. The approach is refreshing and conversational… almost like a discussion among friends about what truly works for health, rather than a hard-sell. Each element of the project, from the thoughtfully designed product bundles to the purposeful educational resources found in the Journal, Needed Labs™, and Needed Academy, reinforces the belief that women deserve more than the bare minimum from prenatal care. A certification as a B Corp and partnerships with initiatives like 1% for the Planet further highlight the project’s dedication to social good and environmental stewardship. This holistic approach underpins a commitment to building a better future where nutrition changes outcomes for mothers and babies across generations.
