That is scary, but I read the comments and agree with some of them.. I take a multivitamin with 300 mg and then a 400 mg folic acid...So I am only getting that and if you take prenatals it has 800 mg of folic acid..

I haven't read the article, but I was doing some research last night about cervical cancer and found that taking folic acid can help reduce the % of chances of getting cervical and certain other types of cancer as well as protect fetuses from neural tube defects (we all know that one)

I will read this article later, love gaining knowledge...

Wow that's scary! Thanks for sharing Colleen. I don't take any extra but I have been taking prenatals every day for almost 2 years.
