Folate / Folic Acid

Folate, a water-soluble B-vitamin (B9), is essential for DNA synthesis, cell division, and red blood cell formation. Folic acid is the synthetic form found in supplements and fortified foods. It prevents neural tube defects during pregnancy and supports general health by aiding in tissue growth and repair. Common dietary sources include leafy greens, citrus fruits, beans, and fortified grains. Deficiency can lead to anemia, fatigue, and developmental issues during pregnancy. Daily intake recommendations vary by age, gender, and pregnancy status. While generally safe, excessive folic acid supplementation may mask vitamin B12 deficiency. Consult healthcare providers to determine specific needs.
