Main Product Description
NOW® Folic Acid 800 mcg — Essential B-Vitamin for DNA Synthesis & Cellular Health
Folic Acid (Vitamin B9) is an essential nutrient that plays a key role in DNA synthesis, cell division, and genetic repair.
It is especially important for rapidly dividing cells such as red blood cells and developing fetal tissue, making it a critical nutrient during pregnancy.
Folic Acid also supports the conversion of homocysteine to methionine, which contributes to cardiovascular and neurological health by helping maintain optimal homocysteine metabolism.
Adequate intake of folic acid may reduce the risk of neural tube defects when taken before and during early pregnancy.
Each tablet of NOW® Folic Acid 800 mcg includes Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin) to enhance absorption and effectiveness, offering a complete formula to support cellular health and well-being.
