DFI Folic acid 400 mcg - for before and during pregnancy

Information om DFI Folic acid 400 mcg - for before and during pregnancy

Contains 90 tablets. Enough for 3 months.

The Danish Health Authority recommends that women consume 400 micrograms (µg) of folic acid while considering pregnancy and during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. Folic acid supplementation can prevent neural tube defects in the baby, which are congenital malformations of the brain and spinal cord. Folic acid is a B vitamin that naturally occurs in foods such as spinach, legumes, brown beans, bread, grains, and certain berries and fruits. However, it is difficult to obtain sufficient amounts through diet alone during pregnancy.

Effect

Supplementing with 400 micrograms (µg) of folic acid from approximately 3 months before conception and until 3 months into pregnancy reduces the risk of giving birth to a baby with neural tube defects. Several studies suggest that the risk can be reduced by up to 40% by using folic acid during pregnancy.

The fetal neural tube normally closes between the 22nd and 29th day after fertilization and later develops into the brain and spinal cord. Folic acid plays a crucial role in this process. If the neural tube fails to close, it results in a congenital malformation. The severity of these malformations can vary from minor cosmetic issues to severe disabilities or stillbirth. Examples include spina bifida, which can cause severe disabilities, or inadequate brain development.
