Preventing Birth Defects Folate is considered an important aid in maintaining a healthy pregnancy. It is critical at times of rapid cell development as it is necessary for creating DNA and RNA. The high level of folate (up to 136 grams per cup) in beets makes them a valuable food for pregnancy. Spina bifida and anencephaly are two birth defects which may be prevented by the consumption of folate rich foods.

Women that take the recommended amount of folic acid reduce the risk of birth defects by 40%. So, remember to take your prenatal vitamins and eat foods rich in folate and iron.
