Folic Acid 800mcg

Description

Folic acid (vitamin B9) is the most common deficiency among the B complex of vitamins. Because it is water soluble, the body cannot store it but instead excretes any excess from the body. That makes sufficient daily intake necessary. Folic acid and vitamins B6 and B12 help break down homocysteine, an amino acid. Elevated levels of homocysteine have been associated as a risk factor for strokes, heart disease, and osteoporosis. People who are Vitamin B9 deficient have a much weaker response to antidepressant medication. Studies show that folic acid may help with memory loss associated with aging. Herbal Forest's Folic Acid contains 800 mcg of folic acid, which is 200% of the recommended daily value. As with all of our supplements, we use only the finest ingredients available. Suggested Use: 1 tablet daily preferably with meals or as directed by a healthcare professional.
