I hope you are in a great mood.

Probably by now, everyone from the David Hasselhoff to your Mum has told you about Folate.
Good sign, your friends love you. They’re right, its one of the most important additives to your diet.

Lets backtrack, Folic acid is a B vitamin and its needed really early on. Take it at least 4 weeks before conception and for at least 12 weeks after. 400 micrograms of Folic acid is a common daily supplement.
The contraceptive pill can muck it up so talk to your medic.

Weird Fact:
It was discovered in green leafy vegetables, HEY IT’S NAMED AFTER THEM! (Foliage…get it)

Hey its super important in avoiding spina bifida, anencephaly and neural tube defects.
Cereal, bread, rice , pasta and other grains usually contain some folate.
Make sure to add orange juice and green vegetables as well.
My favourites are avocados, broccoli and kiwifruit.
Its important for non-preggers human people as well so spread the love.
Peace
