Brain Food For Baby

If a woman has enough folic acid in her body at least one month before and during pregnancy, it can help prevent major birth defects of the baby’s brain and spine (anencephaly and spina bifida). You can boost your folic acid intake by eating fortified foods, taking supplements, or a combination of the two, in addition to adopting a varied diet rich in folate, according to NurseWise, a nurse triage and health education provider.
