A Multivitamin
Iron, calcium and folic acid are especially important during pregnancy.
No, folic acid is a vitamin, nothing to do with a pregnancy test.
Folic acid is extremely important in our bodies. It is necessary for cell division (DNA replication). This means you need it for growing new cells, bone, and especially during the growth of new tissues such as during pregnancy. Without enough folic acid during pregnancy, a child could suffer from neurotubular defects.
As far as I remember,folic acid is the most important one. It is recommended to be taken in the first trimester of pregnancy. I remember that it is especially important in preventing defects such as down syndrome. I also remember my physician mentioning nuchal translucency every time she asked me if I'm taking folic acid.
Folic acid reduces the risk of birth defects in studies. Also a lack of folic acid can lead to exhaustion and edginess. Many times it is prescribed to expectant mothers early in their pregnancy.
Folic acid taken before pregnancy can prevent severe birth defects including proper formation of the spinal column.
Vitamin D, Iron and Folic Acid
Folate or folic acid is a key nutrient to helping to lower the risk for certain birth defects and problems that happen during pregnancy. Most expectant mothers are encouraged to take in foods rich in folate or folic acid before and during pregnancy to help eliminate the risk for birth defects.
Also known as Mecobalamin, MCBM 69 tablets are a multivitamin that contain folic acid. These tablets are completely safe to use during pregnancy.
Folic acid is a critical nutrient for proper neural tube development, as it plays a key role in DNA synthesis and cell division. Adequate folic acid intake, especially during the early stages of pregnancy, can help prevent neural tube defects such as spina bifida.
Folic Acid is essential for cell growth and proper development of the embryo in pregnancy. It has also been proven to reduce the risk for a Neutral Tube Defect.
