Increased Exposure To Synthetic Folic Acid In Utero May Be A Risk Factor For Food Allergy, Research Suggests.

MedPage Today (3/6, Boyles) reports that research indicated "newborns with high levels of unmetabolized folic acid had a higher risk for food allergy later in childhood than newborns with lower circulating folic acid levels – suggesting that increased exposure to synthetic folic acid in utero could be a risk factor for food allergy." In the "nested case-control study performed using data from the Boston Birth Cohort, mean folate levels at birth were found to be lower among children who went on to develop food allergies, while mean levels of unmetabolized folic acid were higher." The findings were presented at the joint meeting of the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Infectious Disease and the World Allergy Organization.
