Description
Solgar Folacin 400 μg, is a dietary supplement with folic acid. Folic acid/Folate is also known as Vitamin B9 and is needed to form new cells and red blood cells. When cell formation increases, for example when you grow or are pregnant, the need for folate increases. Folic acid is a B vitamin that is recommended to be taken by pregnant women and those trying to conceive. Folic acid/folate is needed for the fetus to develop normally and can reduce the risk of spina bifida. Since not all pregnancies are planned, it is recommended that everyone who might become pregnant take supplements with 400 micrograms of folic acid per day. Folate and folic acid are different forms of the same B vitamin. Folate is found naturally in food while folic acid is an artificially produced folate used in fortification and in dietary supplements. Solgar's products are manufactured using naturally produced ingredients. Innovative since 1947.
