Folate is an essential vitamin, especially for pregnant women as it plays a role in red blood cell development and the prevention of neural tube defects in utero.

Many people are unable to convert folic acid into folate, which may result in deficiencies that may result in various health impacts, with potentially serious implications for foetal development in pregnant women.

Key product benefits:

  • Biologically active and bioavailable folate
  • Contributes to the development of maternal tissue and helps to prevent neural tube defects
  • Production of red blood cells
  • 100% of daily folic acid requirement
