BrandsLamberts Folic Acid 400μg 100 tabs
Folic acid participates in the synthesis of DNA and RNA of cells, playing a key role in cell proliferation. For this reason it is especially important for the development of the fetus. It has now been documented that taking 400μg of folic acid during the first trimester of pregnancy is necessary to prevent neural tube defects. Folic acid is known to play an important role in regulating the levels of homocysteine, a component with an amino acid-like chemical structure, which is involved in vascular endothelial damage and which can later lead to the formation of atherosclerotic plaques.
Folic acid is a water-soluble vitamin that is not stored for a long time in the body, which makes it necessary for its nutritional intake. Nutritional sources of folic acid are green vegetables and whole grains. Modern methods of food storage and cooking lead to a reduction in folic acid levels in food, which is reflected in the fact that 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 dietary supplements with folic acid are easily absorbed and are an easy and reliable way to prevent nutritional deficiencies.
This product provides 400μg of folic acid which is 3 times more than the level offered by the diet of the majority of the general population, and is the level that is recommended more and more often.
