RE: WHY ARE WE TOLD TO TAKE FOLIC ACID DURING PREGNANCY & BREASTFEEDING, WHEN ITS SO BAD FOR US AND OUR BABIES?
Here is a link to one of bigger articles in which is stated why pregnant woman should take folid acid. It's decreases number of congenital malformations in children. Without any major studies over the topic u shouldn't be spreading knowledge which isn't checked. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4045958/
But if you read the articles it will explain why pregnant women SHOULD be taking Folate and NOT FOLIC ACID for exactly those reasons
Folate is the natural state of vitamin B9 (also known as Folic acid in its synthetic form)
