Presentation

Yellow round tablet

Use

Folic acid plays an essential role in cell proliferation and is particularly important for the formation of DNA and RNA, and therefore particularly important for fetal development. It is widely known and accepted that a lack of folic acid during the first 3 months of pregnancy increases the risk of damage to the baby’s nervous system.

Folic acid is known to play an important role in regulating the levels of homocysteine, a component with a chemical structure similar to amino acids, which is involved in vascular wall damage and which can later lead to the formation of atherosclerotic plaques.

Folic acid is a water-soluble vitamin that the body can not store for long. Good sources of folic acid from foods include green vegetables and whole grains. However, cooking and storing products can ruin food levels and today 47% of women do not consume the minimum daily intake of 200μg / day. For this reason, folic acid supplements are often suggested.

Bioavailability studies show that folic acid supplements are easily absorbed and are a reliable way to prevent nutritional deficiencies.

This product provides 400μg of folic acid which is 3 times the level offered by the diet of many people, and is the level that is increasingly recommended.
