Ang simpleng desisyon na uminom ng 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗱 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 at kumain ng mga pagkaing mayaman sa 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 ay ang maglalayo sa inyong sanggol mula sa mga birth defects at magtatawid tungo sa maayos na nutrisyon.

Sa pagtatapos ng Folic Acid Awareness Campaign, umaasa ang Volunteer Youth Leaders for Health - Philippines (VYLH - Philippines) na sa kaalamang ito, mahihikayat natin hindi lamang ang ating mga sarili kundi pati na rin ang mga taong malapit sa atin na maging mulat sa kahalagahan ng folate at folic acid. 💊

𝗚𝗮𝗮𝗻𝗼 𝗸𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗱 𝗻𝗴𝗮 𝗯𝗮 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗸𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻𝘂𝗺𝗶𝗻? 🤔💊

Para sa mga babaeng nagpaplanong magbuntis, inirerekomenda ng World Health Organization o WHO ang 𝟰𝟬𝟬 𝗺𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝘀 (μ𝗴) 𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘄-𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘄—mula sa pagsisimula ng pagpaplano hanggang sa ika-12 na linggo ng pagbubuntis. 🫄

Ngunit paano naiiba ang 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗱 sa 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 mula sa pagkain, at ano ang ibig sabihin ng 𝗗𝗶𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗙𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗘𝗾𝘂𝗶𝘃𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗼 𝗗𝗙𝗘? Basahin ang infographic upang mas malaman kung paano sinusukat at inirerekomenda ang folate at folic acid sa iba’t ibang yugto ng buhay.

📌 Kumonsulta sa mga healthcare professionals kagaya ng mga 𝗱𝗼𝗸𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗴𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗶𝘀𝘁-𝗱𝗶𝗲𝘁𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀 tungkol sa supplement at dose na angkop sa iyo.

𝗕𝗮𝗸𝗶𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗴𝗮 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗱 𝗯𝗮𝗴𝗼 𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝗯𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗯𝘂𝗯𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘀? 🤔

Mahalaga ang folic acid sa 𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗯𝘂𝗼 𝗮𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗹𝗮𝗸𝗶 𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗴𝗮 𝙘𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙨 𝗻𝗴 𝗸𝗮𝘁𝗮𝘄𝗮𝗻. Bago at sa mga unang linggo ng pagbubuntis, nakatutulong ito sa maayos na pagbuo at pagsara ng 𝗻𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝘂𝗯𝗲.

𝗔𝗻𝗼 𝗻𝗴𝗮 𝗯𝗮 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗻𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝘂𝗯𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀? 🤷

Ang 𝗻𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝘂𝗯𝗲 ay ang bahaging magiging utak at spinal cord ng sanggol. Kapag hindi ito nasara nang maayos, maaaring magkaroon ng neural tube defect o NTD, gaya ng 𝗮𝗻𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗽𝗵𝗮𝗹𝘆, 𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗽𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲, at 𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗮 𝗯𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗮.

Nakatutulong ang sapat na folic acid upang mapababa ang panganib ng NTDs. Kaya’t mahalaga itong makuha hindi lamang kapag buntis na, kundi mula pa sa pagplano bago ang pagbubuntis. 💊

Ayon sa World Health Organization (WHO), inirerekomenda ang 𝟰𝟬𝟬 𝗺𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝘀 𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗱 𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘄-𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘄 𝗺𝘂𝗹𝗮 𝘀𝗮 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝘂𝗹𝗮 𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗽𝗮𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗮𝗯𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗮 𝗶𝗸𝗮-𝟭𝟮 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗴𝗼 𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗯𝘂𝗯𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘀.

𝗣𝗮𝗮𝗻𝗼 𝗻𝗮 𝗸𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗴 𝗻𝗮𝗸𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗻 𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗼 𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁? 💊📉

Ang 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 o 𝗩𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻 𝗕𝟵 𝗱𝗲𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 ay tumutukoy sa kakulangan ng sapat na folate sa katawan na responsable sa maayos na produksyon ng red blood cells at iba pang papel sa wastong paglaki.

Maaari itong maging sanhi ng madalas na 𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗸𝗮𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗼, 𝗽𝗮𝗺𝘂𝗺𝘂𝘁𝗹𝗮, 𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗵𝗶𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗮, at iba pang senyales na maaaring lumala kung hindi maaagapan.

Sa Pilipinas, 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗹𝗼𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝗴𝘁𝗮𝗮𝘀 𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘀𝘆𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗴𝗮 𝗸𝗮𝗯𝗮𝗯𝗮𝗶𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁. Kabilang na rito ang mga 𝗯𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗮 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗶𝘁 𝗻𝗮 𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗻 𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗮𝗽𝗮𝘁 𝗻𝗮 𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘆𝗼𝗻 upang maiwasan ang anumang komplikasyon tulad ng neural tube defect sa kanilang mga anak.

Dagdag pa rito, ang 𝗮𝗻𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗮, isang kondisyon na maaaring bunga ng folate deficiency, ay itinuturing na 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗽𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿𝗻 sa bansa batay sa 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗡𝘂𝘁𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝘂𝗿𝘃𝗲𝘆. 𝗡𝗴𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁 𝗱𝗮𝗵𝗶𝗹 𝗺𝗮𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗮𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘀 𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗹𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗽 𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗮 𝗺𝗴𝗮 𝗯𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘀, inilagay na ito sa 𝗺𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗽𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿𝗻 kung saan nangangailangan na ng interbensyon bilang tugon sa lumalalang problema sa kalusugan.

Ikalawang araw na ng Awareness Campaign, nawa’y may natutunan muli tayo mula rito! 📝 Sa susunod na postings, aalamin naman natin ang iba’t ibang interbensyon laban sa folate deficiency.

Manatiling nakaantabay sa mga susunod na postings!

𝗔𝗻𝗼 𝗻𝗴𝗮 𝗯𝗮 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗙𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗰𝗶𝗱? 💊

Para sa unang araw ng Awareness Campaign, aalamin natin kung ano ang folic acid! 🤔💭

Ang 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗱 ay synthetic o gawa-sa-laboratoryong anyo ng 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 o 𝗩𝗜𝗧𝗔𝗠𝗜𝗡 𝗕𝟵, isang water-soluble vitamin na natural na matatagpuan sa iba’t ibang pagkain.

Maraming pagkain ang mapagkukunan ng folate, kagaya ng 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗮𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗴 𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘆, 𝗯𝗲𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝘁 𝗹𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗺𝗲𝘀, 𝗺𝗴𝗮 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗶 𝗮𝘁 𝗯𝘂𝘁𝗼, 𝗽𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗮𝘀, 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘀, at 𝗲𝗻𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗱 𝗻𝗮 𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗽𝗮𝘆. 🥗🍞

Mahalaga ito sa paggawa ng 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝗮𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗹 𝗻𝗮 𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗹𝗮𝗸𝗶 𝗽𝗮 𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗯𝗮’𝘁 𝗶𝗯𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗹𝘀. Dahil hindi kayang gumawa ng ating katawan ng folate, kailangan natin itong makuha mula sa pagkain o folic acid supplements. 🩸💊

𝗔𝗟𝗔𝗠 𝗠𝗢 𝗕𝗔? 💡

Ayon sa World Health Organization (WHO), 𝗺𝗮𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗮𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗻 𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗴𝗮 𝗯𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝗮 𝗺𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗱 𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘂𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗮𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗮𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗼𝗴 𝗻𝗮 𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗹𝗮𝗸𝗶 𝗮𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝗴-𝘂𝗻𝗹𝗮𝗱 𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗴𝗼𝗹. Inirekomenda ng WHO ang 𝟰𝟬𝟬𝗺𝗰𝗴 𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗱 𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘄-𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘄 𝘀𝗮 𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗯 𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶 𝗯𝗮𝗯𝗮𝗯𝗮 𝘀𝗮 𝟭𝟮 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗴𝗼 𝗯𝗮𝗴𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗯𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘀 upang makatulong na maiwasan ang neural tube defects.

𝗠𝗮𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗸𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗴𝗮 𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗸𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗮𝘆𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝘀𝗮 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲, ngunit may mga taong maaaring kailanganin din ang folic acid supplements.

𝗞𝘂𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗮 𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗮 𝘀𝗮 𝗱𝗼𝗸𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗼 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 bago uminom ng anumang supplement.

Nawa’y may nakuha tayo mula sa unang araw ng campaign! Patuloy natin itong sundin para mas mapalalim ang kaalaman natin tungkol sa folic acid! 💊
