Folic Acid 120 Natural Berry Gummies 400mcg - Large Pack - One Daily - Prenatal, Pregnancy Support - High Strength Supplement by Amazon.co.uk
Description
Folic Acid is the synthetic version of Folate (Vitamin B9) - a water-soluble vitamin naturally occurring in many foods. Supplemental folic acid gets converted into Folate in the body. It is a quite busy vitamin as it: - increases maternal folate status. Low maternal folate status is a risk factor in the development of neural tube defects in the developing foetus, - contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy, - contributes to normal amino acid synthesis, - contributes to normal blood formation, - contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism, - contributes to normal psychological function, - contributes to the normal function of the immune system, - reduces tiredness and fatigue, - has a role in the process of cell division;.
There are many foods naturally rich in folate, such as leafy vegetables (asparagus, spinach, kale, broccoli), brussels sprouts, fruits, liver, and more, therefore a healthy diet should be enough to get as much folate as one needs. However, food processing, especially cooking in water may cause significant loss of folate (try steaming instead).
Taking folic acid supplements is also a good way of topping-up folate levels in our body, and it especially matters for pregnant women. Most medical authorities in the world (including NHS) recommend that women in the first trimester of pregnancy, or even before getting pregnant, should take 400µg (micrograms) of supplemental folic acid per day. It is essential for the development of the baby's spinal cord and the central nervous system. Your doctor may even advise you to keep taking the vitamin after the first trimester.
So, why not to try our yummy, berry flavoured gummies? Each gummy contain 400µg of Folic Acid so one pack should last up to 4 months - that is, unless your partner try them - then you would have to keep them away from him, or better: share the pack. That would be the best option (recommended by Nutrilus ;)
