Folic Acid (Vitamin B9) 800mcg
Folic acid, also known as Vitamin B9, is a water-soluble member of the B-Complex family and needs to be replenished daily. Folic acid supports heart and circulatory health and may support blood pressure already within a normal range. It helps the body regulate the level of homocysteine, an intermediate in protein metabolism that, if elevated, is bad for the heart, brain, eyes, and bone health. Folic acid is used by the body to create new cells, making it critically important to supplement with during pregnancy.†

The Science Behind Folic Acid
A meta-analysis published in the European Journal of Internal Medicine found that supplementation with folic acid helped to support the body in maintaining levels of homocysteine already within normal range and was found to successfully support cardiovascular and brain health. [1]
Research published in Scientific Reports found that Folic acid supplementation improves cognitive function. [2]
Research published in the Proceedings of Nutrition Society suggests that folate and the metabolically related B-vitamins are essential for brain health. Folate is indirectly involved in DNA methylation, which in turn is considered to be one of the mechanisms that may underlie fetal programming and brain development. [3]
Research published in Graefe’s Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology found that Folic Acid is linked to eye function and health. It is crucial for rapidly growing tissues such as those of the fetus. Folate transport proteins are present in certain eye tissues, which explains why Folate plays an important role in eye development. [4]
