Folate and folic acid helps your body form healthy red blood cells, and it's found in foods like spinach, broccoli, chickpeas, brown rice and granary bread.
It's a good idea to eat plenty of these foods during your pregnancy but, advises the NHS, "It would be almost impossible to get enough folic acid just from food. The only way to be sure you're getting the right amount is by taking a supplement.
