Folate 400mcg DFE (Folic Acid 400mcg) - 50 Tablets
- Folic acid is a water-soluble B Vitamin and member of the B Complex. Folic acid intake is important for pregnant women and helps promote heart health.* Folic acid helps maintain healthy levels of homocysteine by helping convert homocysteine into methionine.* In addition, it plays a significant role in the health of red blood cells, and helps support a healthy nervous system.* Adequate folate in healthful diets may reduce a woman’s risk of having a child with a brain or spinal cord birth defect. Folate intake should not exceed 250% of the DV (1000 mcg).
Folacin is absolutely vital for fetal development and growth especially during the early stages of pregnancy. Neural tube defects can be caused by folacin deficiency. Sadly this means that chances of miscarriages and spina bifida are increased. Perinatal depression is common and cannot be properly addressed due to safety concerns for the baby. Folacin (along with vitamin B’s) is a natural alternative in such cases as it could help with neurological issues. For adults, folacin is needed for good heart health as it motivates balanced levels of cholesterol and reduces chances of stroke. Neurological benefits can also be highlighted again.
