Another ingredient in Eve M's program that I've been wondering about is beremeal. It's available from
http://www.realfoods.co.uk/product/782/beremeal
500 g cost £ 2.48
Eve M's program is very well balanced, so there must be a reason why it's there. 100 g bere contains over 100 mcg folate:

After baking, only 1/5 of that is left:

Only spinach, asparagus, and broccoli contain comparable amounts of folates:

Of course hair skin nails multis contain folic acid, but I'll stick to Wahaika's recommendation to eat spinach and broccoli. Preferably raw.
