What is folic acid and what effect does folic acid have?
Folic acid belongs to the B vitamin family and is the synthetic form of vitamin B9, also known as folate. It is a water-soluble vitamin and cannot be produced by the human body.
Folic acid is vital for us because it plays an important role in cell division and performs the following important tasks in our body:
- Folate contributes to the growth of maternal tissue during pregnancy
- Folate contributes to normal amino acid synthesis
- Folate contributes to normal blood formation
- Folate contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism
- Folate contributes to normal psychological function
- Folate contributes to the normal function of the immune system
- Folate contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue
- Folate has a role in the process of cell division
The need for folic acid is particularly high before and during pregnancy. In this case, the German Nutrition Society recommends additional supplementation of 400 mcg of folic acid per day[1].
Why should you buy Now Foods folic acid?
In addition to folic acid, which is very important for the body, the Now Foods Folic Acid formula also contains the essential vitamin B12, which is also involved in important processes in the human body:
- Vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy metabolism
- Vitamin B12 contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system
- Vitamin B12 contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism
- Vitamin B12 contributes to normal psychological function
- Vitamin B12 contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells
- Vitamin B12 contributes to the normal function of the immune system
- Vitamin B12 contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue
- Vitamin B12 has a role in the process of cell division
In which foods does folic acid occur naturally?
As our body cannot produce folic acid itself, it must be obtained from food. The following foods have a particularly high folate content:
- Spinach
- lettuce
- pulses
- tomatoes
- strawberries
- Sprouts
- Liver
- eggs
- Wholemeal products[2]
Supplementation with folic acid preparations can be particularly useful for vegetarian or vegan diets, as this can also compensate for a possible vitamin B9 deficiency.
In addition to the folic acid tablets from Now Foods presented here, you will also find a selection of folic acid products from other premium manufacturers on Naturprodukte.store.
