What You Need To Know About Folic Acid
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 июл 2024
- Folic acid is something that we all need to know about. Many countries have mandatory “fortification” programs and most of us ingest it without too much thought. It has been presented by the World Health Organisation and their associates as a “win-win” for the public due to the purported prevention of neural tube defects such as spina bifida.
This video investigates some of the pivotal papers that were used as the evidence for folic acid supplementation for pregnant women and then entire populations. We examine what the real world data shows and why some of the numbers do not stack up.
Additionally, the folic acid they are putting in these products is not the same as the folate that has been depleted from our food in the first place. What are the implications of constant exposure to synthetic compounds and what can you do to remedy the situation today?
Hopefully you enjoy this video as well as all the other free resources encouraging healthy living at drsambailey.com. The book Terrain Therapy also outlines how to achieve your best health through right thinking and right living. It includes an outline of how our diets have been corrupted and what you can do to put everything back on track.

My daughter suffers terrible migraines when she accidentally eats fortified/enriched foods. I mail her organic unfortified flour from a farm here in Canada. She lives in Mexico. Even unbleached organic flour is fortified here as well. It is all criminal. They do not want us well but sick. The elite want a 30% reduction in world wide population and poisoning us is how they will achieve it. Thanks for this video. Praying people of child bearing age see this and also those with health issues.
Bingo. Ah, but who are the ruling elite? How about all those 200 or so kings and queens that magically disappeared from their respective countries between 1912 and 1945 just before the United Nations was formed and strangely the UN had the same goal of reducing the world's population. Remember Covid? Uh huh.
Your videos help restore my faith in humanity. Thank you.
Bravo!! Dr. Bailey. Superb presentation. This "switcheroo" with folate and folic acid reminds me of what was done in 1967 when all commercially baked good required iodine. Bing.... they changed it out, for bromine....which happens to be attracted to the iodine receptors...blocking absorption of iodine. Oh, those health officials.....gotta keep a close eye on them at all times!
Good post .
The day NZ announced they where adding this to our bread is the day I stopped buying any bread or baked goods. Been baking all my own since. Now I need to make sure I source good, organic, unbleached flour!!
Important to note the commonality of the mthfr gene mutations and the dangers of consuming folic acid.
Thank you doctor. Still the best smile on the internet.
What about Jacinda..?

My daughter works within council care - she told me due to a certain birth defect, they are now looking very closely at Folic acid as the cause - in the UK folic acid is added to bread and flour.
I've just bought a bread maker, after I realised that huge list of ingredients on the packaging. I use 4 ingredients, all are organic. I've never been so conscious of what I put in my body.
Its added in flour in NZ, which means everything made with flour has folic acid, which means there is no regulation in how much is consumed by the public, how does that make any sense🙈 same for fluoride 😡
One of the reasons I don't consume any grains, though I'm sure some of the meat I eat has been adulterated anyway through animal feed 🤦♀️
Nice on Doc.... these authority bodies should be ashamed of themselves for all this poisoning and the obfuscating of findings and truths....
Dr.Natasha Campbell Mcbride has written several books, Weston A.Price & Sally Fallon ❤
HI Dr Sam, I'm in NZ too. I'm a label reader and have just noticed on one of our supermarket branded flours have added folic acid in the ingredient list.
Thanks for the info and the links.
It became mandatory a year ago in NZ, the only brand is Edmonds and organic flours. Which means all bought products made with flour has folic acid. All bread on the shelf has this product. Its also in some supplements.
REAL folate comes from folinic acid. Unfortunately, folinic acid has recently been made a prescription only medicine instead of an over the counter supplement. Luckily, I still have a jar of folinic acid capsules. Folinic acid helps detoxification.
Leafy green veges, broccoli etc are the real sources of folate.
Thanks Dr S…to sum up, you’re saying virtually all folic acid supplements are synthetic and to avoid those. Are there any at all that are sourced from actual food? Sounds like, if so, there’s probably a lot of processing that goes into making it.
Ultimately, you’re right on. Ignorance in farming has wreaked havoc on soils and ruined their ecosystem. Add to that the poison dumped on crops and it’s obvious where a species is headed with that mindset.
But there’s hope. More and more organic farming is happening and awareness is growing. We may see a change in our lifetime 🙏
In Australia the law is just around wheat flour for bread production needing to have folic acid, so gluten free bread doesn't legally require it to be added.
I make my own bread at home and on rare occasion of getting a burger at a restaurant I go for gluten free bread.
I suspect a lot of gluten intolerant people may just be intolerant to the folic acid
I think it goes deeper than that, they have found where glysophate is used more commercially in food production ie. Spraying wheat to hurry its process has led to widespread coeliac dis-ease.
Thank you for doing this very important video.
I remember Spina bifida was heavily associated to Chemical Sprays, like IWD's 245t and 24d, the two mixed made agent orange,
I understand that Folic acid should really be Folinic acid and Niacin should really be Nicotinic acid. So they are adding the wrong thing. They use niacinamide which is not Nicotinic acid. So whatever they are adding is possibly antagonistic to Folinic acid and Nicotinic acid.
My oldest son is classed as "autistic" and he has many problems; one possible cause is that my wife took 10x the folic acid she needed for a wekk due to a doctor's error.
Autism is literally genetic. When a child is autistic someone in the close family surely is as well. It’s as genetic as height. 50 percent and is highly heretiable. Maybe start accepting who your child is instead of treating him like damaged or diseased. I feel bad for him he has a parent like you who won’t accept him.
Children that are not v a c c i n a t e d do not get autism. They usually are the healthiest of them all.
As a flour Miller, this is some what accurate. But 99% of flour does not have bleach in it, in nz anyway. Most vitamins are removed by oxygen due to the milling process, so getting local milling and not eating it straight away is thus a waste of time. Minerals in the whole grain are in the bran, which the stomach struggles to digest much of it, so I'm not sure what the benefit of this would be except for the fibre value.
Ty Dr. Bailey, for the video and all the links in your description.
God Bless you Doctor
Thank you so much Dr. Sam for your great work!❤
Great video, thank you! Just started down the vitamin / supplement rabbit hole and have stopped taking them at least for the time being. Seems like the same folks and processes are at play, figures…
Better yet go Carnivorediet! Cheers from Germany
Thankyou so much for making this video. ❤
Thank you again Sam 😊👍 Excellent video.
Dr Sam Love You & Everything You Do To Enlighten People About All of Your Topics I Believe Watch Your Stuff All The Time When I Can Thank You, I Hope You & All Your Family Stay Very Well The Older Aussie Cheers.
I going to guess that we probably shouldn't eat wheat in the first place. But if you do, then this sounds like a good idea.

Would you answer about a good prenatal or if it is necessary with a good diet? Do we have to make sure we get 400-600+ mcg of folate while being pregnant, or is that not necessary and are other factors involved that create neural tube defects like you showed in the video? I have found a prenatal called birthright, which is animal based with liver and other foods, but my concern is not getting enough folate in my diet. They do not measure nutrient amounts. It is difficult to get enough folate from diet alone unless you are being very specific every day. I guess I am just wondering if that target number of a minimum of 400-600 mcg per day is inaccurate because it is assuming the previous studies on folic acid are true?
Ok, correlation is not causation but someone I know started taking folate. I did not know she was taking it but I noticed something was not right. During the same time, I had just found out that folic acid could be bad for you. Someone says that folate is not the same as folic acid but how can we be so sure about that? Are we sure it is folate in the container? Either way, she was happier than usual - one might say that this is great. The problem is that folic acid acts as an antidepressant similar to fluoride. However, her cognitive functions were declining, she did not notice that. At times she acted as if 20 years older or more. I asked her to stop taking it - it was the new fag for methylation, you know? - and slowly but surely her condition improved. Perhaps it was just a coincidence or something else but that was the only new supplement added to the mix. Maybe folate at very small doses is beneficial, I do not know, but ask someone to keep an eye on you if you decide to supplement it with it. Feel free to do your own research, this is just my opinion.
In US research organic pasture raised eggs were found to have up to 21 times the folic acid of factory farmed eggs (Polyface farm).
That’s an estimate of 25 micrograms vs 525 micrograms. For two eggs, 50 micrograms vs 1,050.
Less assume that’s best case scenario, and instead estimate the comparator at 10 times. For two eggs then that would be 50 micrograms vs 500 micrograms. That’s moving the chickens daily using a chicken tractor-a chicken tractor is a chicken cage someone pulls along the ground over a new section of pasture everyday that was grazed by ruminants some days prior.
“You are what you eat” is an exaggeration, but that does seem like a stark contrast. You’d need twenty factory farmed eggs to have the same folic acid as two of these other eggs. Ask your local Mennonite, Amish or regenerative farmer if they have pasture raised chicken eggs.
Note: the name chicken tractor is somewhat misleading as they typically do not involve what you would consider to be a tractor. It’s just a cage, and they sometimes have a couple of wheels.
All Defects are Nutrients deficiency
Hi Dr. Sam, I'm Sheryl from NZ. Thank you for your video. We're planning to have another child, God willing. I'm currently taking folic acid as I'm worried I'm not getting enough folate on my diet. Could you please recommend any prenatal supplements? God bless your work abundantly.
I took in 1972 folic acid due a blood test I didn't take it all in fact I only took a very few I never liked taking supplements really and didn't believe much in them really My Son however was from a father who was an alcoholic He was so lucky because one of my nieces had alcohol syndrome because one of my sisters was drinking at that time Folic acid anyway isn't good for your heart is it?
I think I've read that someplace? Thank you for this so great to hear the reality *
Just reading the label on my sublingual b supplement and see it says folate mcg DFE…that sucks.

Someone sadly started...
My only addiction is you a human are not designed to eat carbs any. So no wheat rice fruits and especially not vegetables. We are obligate carnivores. We only moved to carbs circa 12000 years ago and the state of our heath that followed is only too evident.
How come all the other apes eat mostly fruit?
Just another reason to grow your own... and eat less :) Probably the B12 on that label wasn't any good for your either :) like the wrong form of k2 instead of the green grass form which i think is k2-mk4 and not the synthetic plant one mk8 ?
When I started watching Doctor Sam I had E.D. now I have P.E. 😂
What are you talking about.
Looking to buy organic, unadulterated flour in Auckland. Does any one have any suppliers/retailers to recommend please?
Not for Auckland but you can buy organic flour online from NZ suppliers. That's what I do.
@@xcell8638 thanks postage is a killer then :( for us anyway
Why should I (a man) have to take medication for some woman who can't be bothered to take it herself?
To fix a quite obvious brain malfunction.
Folic acid is even worse for those of us with MTHFR gene mutations. Horrible stuff
How come?
Eat beef liver capsules, skip the grains.
Sounds disgusting
Too much retinol
@@woodlakesound They are gelatin capsules, no taste
@@BillyRubinIII Rarely you could say this happens, vit a is liberated by light in the retina. Copper is part of that story as Well.
