During Pregnancy,
Study Says

If you want a child who excels in school, take multiple micro-nutrient (MMNs) while
pregnant, a recent finding suggests.
According to a study conducted by researchers from Lancaster, California and Harvard
universities, taking MMNs during pregnancy can help make the baby smarter. The
researchers reveal that MMN supplements can improve procedural memory, otherwise
known as the area of the brain that facilitates motor skills in young children.
Better Procedural Memory
The study, published in The Lancet Global Health, showed that children born to mothers who
took MMNs reaped "impressive" long-term benefits. The children had better procedural
memory, with the increment equivalent to an extra half-year of education.
Children of anemic mothers who took MMNs, meanwhile, scored substantially higher on
general IQ tests, with the increase equivalent to a year of additional schooling. The vitamin
tablets contained riboflavin, niacin, folic acid, and vitamins C, D, and B12.
Yes to Vitamin D and Folic Acid
Taking vitamins while expecting is not only beneficial to a child’s cognitive and motor skills.
Certain vitamins like Vitamin D and Folic acid can help decrease the risk of birth defects as
well.
Previous research conducted by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE),
for instance, showed that Folic Acid could reduce the likelihood of spinal cord and brain
defects in babies. Vitamin D supplements, meanwhile, could help strengthen the
development of the babies’ teeth and bones.
Other studies, meanwhile, warn that expecting women should take vitamin A in moderation,
as high levels of the said vitamin may cause birth defects. Scientists, moreover, recommend
that only anemic women should take iron, as it may lead to diarrhea or constipation.
Scientists have a piece of advice for expecting mothers: educated and nurturing parents, as
well as happy mothers, help with a child's development. Monitoring the youngster’s diet is
also key, as Finnish researchers suggest that children who ate vegetables, fruit, fish, and
whole grains during their first three years in school tend to score higher in tests.
