  1. Vista Nutrition Folic Acid Folic acid (also known as folate),vitamin B9 vitamin Bc, pteroyl-L-glutamic acid, pteroyl-L-glutamate, and pteroylmonoglutamic acid are forms of the water-soluble vitamin B9. Folic acid is itself not biologically active, but its biological importance is due to tetrahydrofolate and other derivatives after its conversion to di-hydrofolic acid in the liver. Vitamin B9 is essential to numerous bodily functions. The human body needs folate to synthesize DNA, repair DNA, and methylate DNA as well as to act as a cofactor in certain biological reactions.

  2. How it works !? • Folic acid is the synthetic form of folate, one of the B vitamins essential in the body for cell growth and division. • Pregnant women and small children especially need folic acid because of the rapid growth and cell division occurring during this stage of life. • Folate can be found in green, leafy vegetables, beans and legumes, citrus fruits and enriched foods, such as breads and cereals. • Folic acid ensures that there is enough of one of these bases, thymidylate. Without thymidylate, DNA cannot replicate so cells can't divide

  3. *Benefits* • You can also take it as a supplement.Folic acid is an essential vitamin in producing DNA. • There are four nucleotide bases that form DNA. • Folic acid ensures that there is enough of one of these bases, thymidylate. • Folic acid also helps form red blood cells and works with vitamin B-12 and vitamin C to break down, use and create proteins in the body

  4. Supplement Facts Most multivitamins sold in the United States have the amount of folic acid women need each day.

Some foods, such as breads and breakfast cereals, are fortified with folic acid. Products with extra folic acid display a round symbol with the letter F in the centre. Folic acid helps to protect your unborn baby from developing defects in his nerve system (neural tube defects), such as spina bifida. The first 12 weeks of your pregnancy are when your baby's brain and nerve system are forming and growing fast. That's why it's important to take daily folic acid supplements then. *These statements have not been evaluated by the FDA.
