The folic acid research office at the University of South Alabama is recruiting non-pregnant females between 19 and 45 years of age to participate in an ongoing project to study the vitamin folate. Folate is known to reduce the risk of birth defects, and this study examines how folate together with vitamin B12 may be used optimally.
Volunteers receive free blood folate analysis, and $10 compensation for the initial visit.
If eligible, participants will visit the folic acid research office each morning for the first five days, and then one week and two weeks later; receive free vitamins for three weeks; and receive $120 compensation if they complete the study.
If interested in participating, e-mail your name and contact information to vitamin@usouthal.edu.
