Ultimate Crash Course on Folate (Vitamin B9)

What this episode covers

On the next Dr. Osborne's Zone, we will discuss why folate (AKA – vitamin B9) is so important. Folate is part of the B vitamin complex. It’s commonly prescribed during early pregnancy to prevent neural tube defects in a growing fetus. But we all need a steady stream of folate. We will take a look at the roles folate plays to understand why. We’ll also discuss how gluten causes a folate deficiency, symptoms to look out for, and the best whole food sources of folate.Supplements mentioned in this episode: 5-MTHF - https://www.glutenfreesociety.org/shop/health-focus/energy-focus/b-vitamins/5-mthf/To connect with Dr. Osborne visit: On the web: https://drpeterosborne.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DoctorPeterOsborne/ Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/docosborne/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drosborne Twitter: https://twitter.com/glutenology Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-3908832Podcast: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dr-osbornes-zone/id1706389688?uo=4 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Zdf07GgpRAVwlSsYvirXT Amazon Music/Audible: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/20d71b2e-3554-4569-9d5b-4259785cdc94 Google Podcasts: https://www.google.com/podcasts?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuc3ByZWFrZXIuY29tL3Nob3cvNTkwNjcwNC9lcGlzb2Rlcy9mZWVk iHeart Radio: https://iheart.com/podcast/119388846*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
