• Supports Healthy Homocysteine Metabolism

As folic acid is one of the most difficult vitamins to absorb, quality plays a decisive role in its selection. NOW folic acid is of high quality and combines 800 mcg of folic acid and 25 mcg of vitamin B-12 characterized by a synergistic action and rapid absorption. Folic acid, when used in conjunction with vitamin B-12, can greatly facilitate cellular energy production.

Folic acid is a water-soluble vitamin B, necessary for the normal functioning of the nervous and digestive system, the formation of red blood cells, the production of DNA and RNA and therefore for cellular function. Taking folic acid and vitamin B-12 in combination is the most common solution for treating many forms of anemia. In fact, most gynecologists recommend that pregnant women take folic acid and vitamin B12 to prevent the onset of anemia that comes from vitamin deficiency.

Folic acid, vitamin B6 and B12 deficiency increases blood homocysteine levels, resulting in vascular damage and an increased risk factor for atherosclerosis. As part of a well-balanced diet, folic acid can reduce the risk factors that favor the occurrence of vascular disease.
