What is folic acid 800 mcg?
Folic acid 800µg by EssentialSeries is a dietary supplement in capsules made with vitamin B9 (folic acid) as the only active ingredient in its composition.
Folic acid is a synthetic folate compound used in food supplements and in food fortification because of its stability, and becomes biologically active after reduction (EFSA, 2010).
The product we have has been developed without the use of ingredients of animal origin in its composition or processing. Making it 100% suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
Why take folic acid 800 mcg?
Because consuming vitamin B9 from the diet is nutritionally indispensable.
What does “indispensable” mean?
The vitamins act as cofactors in the body, that is, they help or are part of intermediaries that help all the reactions of our metabolism to work correctly and without limitations.
Vitamins should be consumed through the diet, as our body lacks the ability to create them on its own in sufficient quantities.
Functions of Vitamin B9
Folate contributes to:
- Normal homocysteine metabolism.
- Normal psychological function.
- Reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
- Normal immune system function.
- Normal blood formation.
- Amino acid synthesis.
In addition, folate has a role in the cell division process.
This vitamin is especially important in pregnant women, as:
The complementary dietary intake of folic acid increases the folate status of the mother. A low folate status is a risk factor in the development of neural tube defects in the developing foetus.1
Folate contributes to the growth of maternal tissue during pregnancy.
