Vitamin B3 is able to prevent miscarriages and congenital defects

Until now, scientists did not know the cause of 80% of congenital defects such as cleft palate, kidney, heart and spine disorders. Scientists from Australia have found that many congenital defects develop due to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) deficiency. According to Zee News, this compound is necessary for energy production.

NAD synthesis requires vitamin B3. Meat and green vegetables contain this vitamin. Studies have shown that in the third trimester of pregnancy 60% of women have B3 deficiency. Such women should take B3 supplements. According to the scientists, women should take such supplements long before pregnancy. This may significantly reduce the risk of miscarriages and congenital anomalies in children.

Earlier, scientists of the University of British Columbia have found that folic acid prevents congenital heart disease. In Canada, since the products enriched with folic acid have appeared on the market, the level of children with congenital heart disease has reduced significantly. The incidence of structural heart defects, including a narrowing of the aortic valve opening, has reduced significantly (by 15-27%).
