Folic acid, 18 foods that contain it

Women of childbearing potential who are planning to become pregnant should include folic acid in their diet . Proper nutrition allows you to cover your daily requirement of 0.2 mg, but often in part it is lost due to cooking or food storage and during pregnancy the requirement doubles. For this reason, supplementation is often required (0.4 mg of folic acid per day). Here in the photo gallery 18 foods rich in folic acid, from asparagus to yogurt, from veal to beef, from beer yeast to wheat germ.

The daily requirement of folic acid under normal conditions is 200 micrograms per day, while it rises to 400 micrograms per day before conception and during pregnancy (one microgram corresponds to one milligram). Source: L. DE LAURENTIIS, “The great Italian book of pregnancy”, Rizzoli.
