Pregnacare Folic Acid

Advantages: Helps prevents spina bifida
Disadvantages: Constipation, Bad Wind

...Background. You can take Folic Acid Tablets at any time in your life. Especially if you are trying to concieve or you are pregnant. Even with a good diet, extra nutrients may be necessary before and during pregnancy. It is safe to take the whole time you are pregnant, even up till the end of breast feeding. I started taking the tablets at roughly 5 weeks when i found out i was expecting. Only because my doctor recommended them. Low levels of folic acid may lead to anaemia. Most folic acid deficiency is the result of a poor diet, because it is abundant in foods such as leafy green vegetables, cereals and yeast. I ate loads of Branflakes infact a big bowl every morining. This might have helped with the constipation. Try and eat some of the following *Milk *Potatoes *Fish *Cabbage, Brussel Sprouts etc... * Wheat Before...

Review of FSC Folic Acid

My Acid attraction

Advantages: Work well and really relieve pain
Disadvantages: not suitable for everyone

...I have suffered from extremely bad periods for around six years now. Some months have been a lot worse than others and one time I nearly fainted because of them. My flow is heavy with quite big clots, I'd say they are usually around the size of a grape. I can't even begin to describe the pain! Now sadly I let myself suffer with these for around five years without getting any help for them whatsoever. It was normal for me to take 15 painkillers a day to try and take the pain away but even then it didn't really do a lot (except make me feel groggy). So that's when I decided it was time to get something done and stop my suffering. So forgetting my pride and my fear, I booked an appointment with the doctor and ended up with some of these 'mefenamic acid 500mg' tablets as well as a contraceptive pill. *** What are Mefenamic Acid 500MG...

Autumn Fallin'

Advantages: Jenny Lewis; the musical guests and production; it's a good record
Disadvantages: It's the weakest album she's made so far; Elvis Costello; slight lyrics

..."I've been down to Dixie and dropped acid on my tongue." ~ Acid Tongue. Jenny Lewis' second solo album sees her pick up the rope left her by 2006's "Rabbit Fur Coat". On that album, the Las Vegas-born former child actress tried her hand at recording a classic-sounding album which took influences from American soul music and country styling, in the process redefining herself as a major influence for modern American music. As a side-project, she gathered together many of her musician friends such as Benjamin Gibbard of Death Cab For Cutie and Conor Oberst of Bright Eyes to help her with the recording of the album, and ended up making a record which critics argued was finer than any of the three albums she'd formerly made with her band Rilo Kiley. Building on the success of Rabbit Fur Coat, Lewis returned to the band and produced...

..., the tablets are quite large and take a bit of getting used to, you definately need a drink with these.

A pen dipped in acid

Advantages: Funny, astute rendering of daily life and social mores in pre-Industrial England
Disadvantages: None, except for the inept way it's taught in school

...with the voice of her time and partly because we are probably like, you know, as inarticulate a people as, like, has ever lived. So do we denigrate Shakespeare or Chaucer for their voices? But if you read carefully, you can hear her chortling and giggling behind the pages. She writes with a pen dipped in acid; hers is an extraordinarily discerning eye that sees all the inequities and vicissitudes of life in her time, and yet manages to convey the foolishness with real affection for her characters. (Well, the more sympathetic ones, anyway - the rest are skewered without mercy.) This woman is funny. The themes of Austen's works are all similar - they relate to the difficulties of women finding their own voices and places in a rigidly structured society in which they were defined strictly by the men in their lives. We know Jane Austen as the towering...

The Genetic Code Transmitter

Advantages: A must for pregnant women and those trying to conceive. Also helpful in prevention of some cancers.
Disadvantages: Please note that taking folic acid in large doses can cause severe neurological problems and may also cause insomnia and interfere with the body’s absorption of zinc.

...Folic Acid (B9) Folic acid is a water-soluble vitamin that forms part of the B-complex family of vitamins. It is also known as vitamin Bc but most of you will know it as vitamin B9. Low levels of folic acid may lead to anaemia. Folic acid is essential for the division of body cells, and it is also necessary for the utilisation of sugar and amino acids. Most folic acid deficiency is the result of a poor diet, because it is abundant in foods such as leafy green vegetables, yeast, and offal. Recent scientific findings indicate that folic acid can prevent some types of cancer and is helpful in the treatment of heart disease. If women have enough folic acid in their bodies before pregnancy, it can help decrease the risk for neural tube defects (NTDs), which are birth defects of the baby's brain (anencephaly) or spine (spina...

Review of FSC Folic Acid

Food For Thought

Advantages: Numerous see op, Pregnant women,
Disadvantages: None

...Folic acid is an extremely important vitamin and is probably one of the most underated. It is also called folate or folacin and is one of the "B" vitamins, also known as Vitamin B9. All vitamins are essential in maintaining a healthy body. Many of these vitamins are found in plentiful quantities in foods that we normally consume and therefore the question of deficiency does not arise. However several vitamins are present only in limited types of foods and also in limited quantities and much below the recommended daily allowance. This creates various levels of deficiencies that are associated heavily with the diet that we consume. Folic acid is one of these vitamins. Studies have learnt that many people in Western societies have a mild folic acid deficiency and as such has suggested that increasing folic acid intake could prevent...
