Which is more? folic acid 500mcg or 5mg?? help??

Question

trying to conceive , bad in maths :P

Answer 1

You should take 800mcg at most. 5mg = 5000mcg.

Answer 2

5mg is greater.

5 mg = 5000 micrograms.

Answer 3

5 mg is 10 times more.  500 mcg is 0.5 mg.

Answer 4

5mg is more folic acid.  I suggest my pateints who are trying to conceive/pregnant take 400mcg (0.4mg) of folic acid daily to prevent neural tube defects in the baby.  Good luck!

Answer 5

5mg = 5000micrograms

5mcg = 500micrograms

so that means 50mg folic acid is more in amount than 500mcg ^_^
