Grain products are enriched with folacin to reduce the incidence of neural tube defects.

Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)


True

Rationale: A deficiency of folacin (folate) in a pregnant mother's diet increases her risk of giving birth to an infant with birth defects, particularly cleft lip and/or palate and spina bifida (a neural tube defect). Grain products in the U.S. are now fortified with folacin to, in part, address this deficiency (because grain products are consumed by most people).
