In this episode, I share about Folate and Prenatal Nutrition
Folate is a necessary nutrient to sustain a pregnancy and prevent neural tube defects.
Folate and Folic Acid work differently in the body, and consuming folate is safer than taking folic acid supplements.
FDA currently recommends 600mcg for pregnancy and 500mcg for lactation.
Foods based vitamins tend to have higher absorption rates because vitamins, minerals and foods work synergistically. So “higher” does of synthetic vitamins aren’t necessarily “better”
