Folic Acid & Pregnancy
Folic Acid and Pregnancy
Has your Midwife told you that too much Folic Acid has been linked to tongue tie?
Has your Doctor told you to go and buy Folic Acid and take it when you are pregnant?
Some people cannot metabolize folic acid and it builds up in their system. I remember a patient years ago who was given high doses of folic acid on it’s own by her Doctor. Unfortunately, this person had an inability to metabolize Folic Acid and her baby was very anxious.
In the last 6 years, as a result of my own Methylation inadequacies, I have become more aware of how an unsupervised pregnancy can be the difference between healthy and unhealthy babies. If someone has a baby that does not settle or has more challenging medical problems, it has all started with the parents. Heathy people make healthy babies.
We hear stories all the time of the parents being shocked that their child is not 100% healthy…after a few questions, myself or any Naturopath will quickly be able to see where it all started…the parents and the pregnancy.
If you are planning on having a baby, make sure that you budget for regular chiropractic adjustments and a Naturopath. Dr Kelly has 25 years of experience with healthy natural pregnancy.
