Our advice and expert opinions

Folic acid is one of the B vitamins. It helps prevent neural tube defects such as spina bifida and cleft palate. The neural tube forms the basis of the nervous system. It develops at a very early stage of pregnancy: from the very first day after fertilization.

Later, the brain and spinal cord are created from the neural tube. If the neural tube does not develop correctly, we speak of neural tube defects. The consequences can be spina bifida or cleft palate.

Scientific research has shown that, when the mother takes in more folic acid during the period when the baby's spine is developing, it reduces the risk of neural tube defects. This process takes place during the first eight weeks of pregnancy.
