Mason Natural Folic 400mcg

This is a pregnancy superhero! Taking a prenatal vitamin with the recommended 400 micrograms (mcg) of folicacid before and during pregnancy can help prevent birth defects of your baby's brain and spinal cord. Take it every day and go ahead and have a bowl of fortified cereal, too.   What is FolicAcid?   Folicacid is a man-made form of a B vitamin called folate. Folate plays an important role in producing red blood cells and helps your baby's neural tube develop into her brain and spinal cord. Birth defects occur within the first 3-4 weeks of pregnancy. So it's important to have folate in your system during those early stages when your baby's brain and spinal cord are developing.   If you talked to your doctor when you were trying to conceive, she probably told you to start taking a prenatal vitamin with folicacid. One study showed that women who took folicacid for at least a year before getting pregnant cut their chances of delivering early. The CDC recommends that you start taking folicacid every day for at least a month before you become pregnant, and every day while you are pregnant. However, the CDC also recommends that all women of childbearing age take folicacid every day. So you'd be fine to start taking it even earlier.
