Who needs to supplement
Take folate if you are not pregnant
Folate is critical very early in pregnancy -- so take folate supplements even if you might get pregnant.
Pregnant women should supplement
A prenatal vitamin pill will fulfill the need for additional iron and folate to protect mother and developing child.
Getting started
See your doctor if
Talk to your doctor if you are pregnant, have cancer, fragile skin, heart problems, or any serious skin disorder.
A (retinol)
Vitamin A is toxic
In larger doses A is toxic! Adults should not exceed 10,000 IU of vitamin A daily, especially if you are or might become pregnant.
Eating out
Seafood: Minimize the mercury
Fish with high mercury levels include swordfish, shark, and king mackerel -- AVOID if pregnant or under 16 years.
For women
Watch your folate!
If you are thinking of getting pregnant, or are pregnant, getting enough folic acid is essential for normal child development.
