Details

The blood folate report is part of Public Health England’s National Diet and Nutrition Survey (NDNS) series.

This report presents results for serum total folate and red blood cell folate levels in women of childbearing age, other adults, and children for the UK overall, and separately for Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales.

We republished the report in November 2017 with revised blood folate results. See the attached HTML document for details of the changes.
