Avoid folic acid…

I feel like this problem is going under the radar. Folic acid added to foods wrecks me. And it’s taken way too long to figure out.

get natural folate from liver, eggs, citrus or use L-Methylfolate if supplementing

Compare the charts from when folic acid was recommended as a prenatal and the government mandated fortifying grains with folic acid against a chart showing the rise in autism. This is the reason 75% of children with autism have folate receptor antibodies and fokate can’t cross the BBB

Absolute quack, and a douche. The authors of the study don’t jump to this dumb conclusion. I hate preachy doctors like this.

I prescribe folinic acid for my autism patients! It's needed to treat folate receptor antibodies and MTHFR gene mutations

Wrong. That’s a small scale observational study which cannot be used to infer causality. In fact, there was a 10 study meta-analysis that indicated the opposite in terms of findings: The authors themselves don’t draw the conclusions you have. Do better

When I was pregnant, the doctor always prescribed police acid to prevent spina bifida

Doctors had my wife taking folic acid before and during pregnancy. Specifically!

Weren't they pushing prenatal vitamins with folic acid to prevent spina bifida?

When I was pregnant, the doctor forced me to take folic acid

So true. 50% of the population have a genetic disorder, MTHFR gene mutation, which inhibits conversion of “synthetic folic acid” into FOLATE (the stuff, your body actually uses).

Unreal. Our government hates us.

New Zealand has mandated folic acid into all flour

Great advice. Also avoid if you have an MTHFR gene mutation which many do.

What prenatal stack is best?

I thought Folic Acid was specifically recommended as a supplement during pregnancy.

The evidence of insufficient folic acid intake in most individuals with ASD remains consistent in this update. No association was found between maternal exposure to folic acid and the risk of ASD in their children..... 🤔🤔

@grok evaluate claims made in this video and reference up to date research to comment on the safety of folic acid folate. Summarize for me like I’m a smart 5th grader.

@Ruthjelagat13

High doses of folic acid are prescribed to prevent future neural tube defects during early pregnancy. What you're stating is pretty wild actually.

Hey Paul enjoy your content. What do you do for bread ? Recommendations?

Old news from 30 yrs ago,lol

Jesus christ. It's impossible to find good information these days. We were told to absolutely take folic acid if you're pregnant and how important it is and now this dude is saying the opposite?

what should my wife be taking instead? She's 21 weeks pregnant

👂👂👂 if you know an expected mother! Let her know! ❤️👍

But I'm not black

Beef liver and eggs should be in your diet, especially if you’re pregnant. For those afraid of vitamin A toxicity, those studies are from synthetic vitamin A, not natural retinol from animals.

I think Rainbow Light has the best sources for vitamins of any kind

Association, not causative.

Methylated b vitamins make me sooo tired. Anyone have an explanation?
