@dr.umanaidoo: This vitamin could shape your baby’s brain for life… can you guess which one? 🧠✨ A recent study followed kids aged 7–12 and found that those whose moms had higher levels of this vitamin during pregnancy—especially in the first trimester—scored better on overall cognitive performance. Why? Because this nutrient plays a key role in: ✔️ Brain structure development ✔️ Neuronal differentiation ✔️ Neurotransmitter production Here’s the catch: 1 in 3 pregnant women in the U.S. are deficient, and Black women are at even higher risk due to melanin reducing sun-based production. Clue: You can get it from food, supplements, and the sun… but don’t skip SPF—your body can still make it with sunscreen. What’s your guess?
