Vitamin D, Folate, Vitamin B 12 , and Iron Status in Pregnant/Postpartum Old Order Anabaptist Women in Southwestern Ontario
2024
Overview
Purpose: To assess vitamin D, folate, vitamin B 12 , and iron status in Old Order Anabaptist (OOA) pregnant/postpartum women. Methods: Blood was analyzed for plasma 25 hydroxy vitamin D (25(OH)D), red blood cell (RBC) folate, serum vitamin B 12 , and iron status indicators. Dietary intakes (food and supplements) from 3-day estimated records were compared to Dietary Reference Intakes and Canada’s Food Guide (2007). Results: Fifty women participated in this descriptive cross-sectional study. Concentrations of 25(OH)D were low (<50 nmol/L for 20% and < 75 nmol/L for 63%); 42% had total vitamin D intakes < estimated average requirement (EAR). All women had RBC folate above the 1360 mmol/L cut-off. Nineteen percent had folate intakes upper limit. One woman had low serum vitamin B 12 (<148 pmol/L); serum vitamin B 12 was high (>652 pmol/L) for 24%. None had vitamin B 12 intakes
