Folic Acid
(asked on 2nd November 2015) - View Source
Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they plan to review the Teratology Society recommendation regarding mandating folic acid fortification in Europe.
This question was answered on 16th November 2015
We have not formally reviewed the 2015 Obeid paper but officials are aware of its conclusions which are in line with information already considered by Ministers.
The recommendation in the Teratology Society in essence repeats current advice on folic acid supplements. There are no plans to review this advice.
