I remember an outbreak of anencephaly in the Rio Grande Valley in the 70’s or 80’s.

Traced to an outbreak of a corn mold in grain used for masa.

Treated by increasing folic acid in prenatal care, and tighter controls on corn meal.

Probably some damn hippies have been buying some organic fairtrade flower with no folic acid. By the time you are pregnant it is too late. if it is not already in your diet BEFORE conception your babies are at risk.
