The Importance Of Folic Acid - World Folic Acid Awareness Week
It’s World Folic Acid Awareness Week, taking place from 5th – 9th January 2026. The UK Department of Health recommend that you take a daily 400µg supplement of folic acid (or 5mg if you are at higher risk of neural tube defects) for at least one month before and for at least the first trimester of pregnancy. It can also be beneficial to take it for at least three months before conception, to safeguard your nutritional stores.
Supplemental folic acid intake increases maternal folate status. Low maternal folate status is a risk factor in the development of neural tube defects in the developing foetus.
Pregnacare is proud to support charity Shine and the Folic for Life campaign to raise awareness of folic acid and aim to reduce the risk of Neural Tube Defects (NTDs) in the developing foetus. Shine provides specialist support from before birth and throughout the life of anyone living with spina bifida and/or hydrocephalus, as well as to parents, families, carers and professional care staff to enable people affected to get the best out of life.
