 The article discusses the importance of vitamin intake, particularly in preventing birth defects. It highlights that at least 300 babies are born with spina bifida and other birth defects every year due to lack of vitamin intake during pregnancy. Experts suggest that taking folic acid supplements can help prevent these defects. Additionally, the government is considering making fortification of flour mandatory to reduce the number of birth defects.
