Is it ever too early to start thinking about the health of a child? A new study suggests
that more women should be thinking ahead and taking folic acid supplements before they
become pregnant. I'm Shelby Cullinan and this is a dailyRx Minute. This new study showed
that most women did not take the folic acid prior to becoming pregnant but often began
taking them after. The researchers said that taking folic acid supplements before pregnancy
may reduce the risk of spina bifida by as much as 72 percent. Consult with your doctor
before beginning any supplement regimen. For dailyRxTv, I'm Shelby Cullinan.
