Folic acid, Swanson, 800mcg, 250 capsules

Supplemental folic acid increases maternal folate (folate) levels. Low maternal folate is a risk factor for the development of neural tube defects in the developing foetus.

Folate is a naturally occurring form of vitamin B9 found in foods. Folic acid in folate is intended for pregnant women and women planning a pregnancy. Folic acid is not produced in the human body and must be obtained from food. Folic acid is naturally present in many foods, including dark green leafy vegetables, beans, peas, nuts and some fruits such as oranges, lemons, bananas, melons and strawberries.

Foliates help:

support the growth of maternal tissues during pregnancy;

maintain normal amino acid synthesis;

maintain normal blood circulation;

maintain homocysteine metabolism;

maintain normal psychological function;

maintain normal immune system function.

Foliates also play a role in cell division and help to reduce feelings of tiredness and fatigue.
