Re: Folic Acid with poll

400mcg is what is recommended. this is what i, and my practice tells our patients.

unless you had any reason in which you needed more supplementation, 400mcgs is sufficient.

all prenatals are different. i know some of the ones we have samples of here have 1mg (1000mcg). this doesn't make them any better.
