Folic acid supplementation throughout pregnancy reduces lead exposure and autistic behavior in children
It is an established fact that pregnant women should supplement with folic acid, as it reduces the risk of the baby developing neural tube defects in the brain and spinal cord. According to a new Canadian study, folic acid supplementation may also reduce the risk of the child developing neurological damage and autistic behavior caused by lead exposure. It is crucial for pregnant women to get enough nutrients to support fetal development. Also, they should try to avoid environmental toxins as much as possible.
