Key Ingredient Discussion
Folic acid is a water-soluble B vitamin that is needed by the body to manufacture red blood cells. A deficiency of this vitamin causes certain types of anemia. Folic acid occurs naturally in food or can be added to the diet through supplementation. It is found in spinach, broccoli, lettuce, and other leafy vegetables, as well as in asparagus, okra, beans, mushrooms, and fruits, such as bananas, melons, and lemons, plus orange and tomato juice. As a water-soluble vitamin, folic acid cannot be stored in the body and must be replenished daily.
Folic acid is very important for all women who may become pregnant, especially during the periconceptional period (the period of time just before and just after a woman becomes pregnant). According to the U.S. Public Health Service, women who consume healthful diets that include 400 mcg of folic acid daily may reduce the risk of having a child with neural-tube birth defects.* All pregnant women should seek the advice of their healthcare professional regarding their nutritional and other needs.
Folic acid has also been shown to help maintain healthy levels of homocysteine in the blood, which supports cardiovascular health.* High levels of homocysteine have been linked to heart disease and stroke.
Folic acid intake should not exceed 250% of the recommended daily value (1000 mcg).
