Core Tip	Neural tube defects are severe congenital malformations of the central nervous system. The prevalence of these defects in China is among the highest in the world. Low intake of dietary folate is to be blamed. The provision of free-of-charge folic acid supplements to all women who live in rural areas and plan to become pregnant has been implemented since 2009. However, fortification of staple foods with folic acid has not been planned. It is time to consider fortification since many pregnancies are unplanned and therefore it is difficult for a woman to take folic acid supplements from before pregnancy.
