Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2, 3, 4

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1

Folic acid is essential for all women of childbearing potential. It is important for a healthy outcome of a pregnancy. It does not help a person become pregnant. Some women are not aware of being pregnant at first and are not already taking folic acid. By suggesting a supplement, it will already be present in the body if the woman becomes pregnant. Not everyone needs vitamin supplements or have low folic acid levels if their dietary intake is balanced and appropriate.
