What causes folate-deficiency anemia?

You can develop folate-deficiency anemia if:

You don't eat enough foods that have folate. These include green leafy vegetables, fresh fruits, fortified cereals, yeast, and meats (including liver).

You drink too much alcohol.

You have certain diseases of the lower digestive tract, such as celiac disease. This type of anemia also occurs in people with cancer.

You take certain medicines, such as some used for seizures.


You are pregnant. This is because the developing baby needs more folate. Also, the mother absorbs it more slowly. 
A lack of folate during pregnancy is linked to major birth defects that affect the brain, spinal cord, and spine (neural tube defects).
Some babies are born unable to absorb folate. This can lead to megaloblastic anemia. With this condition, red blood cells are larger than normal. They also have a different shape. Early treatment is needed to prevent problems such as poor reasoning and learning.
