S2E23: The Risks of UMFA in Pregnancy


Listen Later

Last week we talked about the remarkable results 5-LMTHF produced in couples struggling with infertility relative to high-dose folic acid, which is the standard of care.  This week, let's expand on that by looking at some possible risks of high-dose folic acid to those very same pregnancies.

  • First, let's talk about the actual difference to blood levels between high and low dose pregnant women.
  • Then, a study linking UMFA in certain groups with risks of ASD or autism spectrum disorder.
  • Lastly, a study showing an interesting link between UMFA levels and food allergies.
  • While the research on UMFA in pregnancy is in early days, it still brings up some compelling points to share with your team of practitioners during pregnancy to make sure that you are getting the best supplementation for you.
