Folate + Iodine
Iodine is one of the most important building blocks of thyroid hormones . This substance has a vital effect on the growth and development of the fetal and neonatal cognitive system . Deficiency or not receiving enough iodine during pregnancy can have side effects in the mother and cause developmental disorders of the nervous system of the fetus and baby . Studies on iodine deficiency during pregnancy have shown its role in the development of the nervous system during fetal and neonatal life and the development of delayed physical-neurological , cognitive-behavioral development as well as the development of cretinism . During normal pregnancy and lactation , many changes occur in the function of the thyroid gland. These include increased thyroid hormone production, increased urinary iodine excretion , iodine secretion in breast milk , and fetal iodine requirements . Therefore , mothers need more iodine to maintain the body’s normal metabolism as well as transfer iodine and thyroxine to the baby and fetus during pregnancy and lactation . This deficiency can be eliminated with folate and iodine capsules .
