Answer to Question 1

It is important for all women of childbearing age to take as much as double the recommended amount of folate. The latest research has associated folic acid deficiency with neural tube birth defects that occur in one out of every 1,000 births. These defects arise early in pregnancy. By recommending extra folate before pregnancy, the Public Health Service hopes to decrease the number of these defects. They also recommend that the extra folate come from foods, rather than supplements.

Answer to Question 2

B

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
