This is essential for the development of the baby's spinal cord and nervous system, and to prevent birth defects known as neural tube defects. These include spina bifida and malformations such as cleft palate or cleft lip. Women who have not been taking folic acid supplements and suspect they are pregnant, should start at once and continue until the twelth week of pregnancy.Folic acid is a B vitamin that is an essential requirement of the body. It is needed for making the genetic material of cells (DNA), and thus for growth and development. Folic acid is particularly important for the maintenance of a healthy nervous system and in the formation of red blood cells, which carry oxygen around the body.Frequently Asked Questions1.
