Folate for Prenatal Health
Folate is an essential vitamin for all ages and stages of life.
Folate is essential for prenatal health and a healthy pregnancy, supporting both moms and babies from conception through postpartum.
For women of childbearing age, a folate-rich diet can help reduce pregnancy complications. During pregnancy and lactation, the need for folate increases significantly, yet many women fall short of meeting these requirements.
Experts recommend ensuring sufficient folate and folic acid intake 1–3 months before conception to support a healthy pregnancy journey.
