Folic acid, also referred to as folate, is a B vitamin essential for the formation of DNA and RNA, which are crucial for protein synthesis in all cells. Rapidly growing tissues, like those in a developing fetus, and rapidly regenerating cells, such as red blood cells and immune cells, have a particularly high demand for folic acid. A deficiency in folic acid can lead to a form of anemia that responds quickly to supplementation.
Folic acid is a vital B vitamin for everyone. It works in conjunction with vitamin B12 to promote the production of healthy red blood cells.
In women's health, folic acid is especially associated with conception and early pregnancy, playing a critical role in fetal development. Governments worldwide recommend a daily supplement of 400mcg of folic acid for optimal health during pregnancy.
