Description
Active Folate 1000 provides 1,000 mcg per day of folate from Metafolin®, a pure, physiologically active, bioavailable form of folate found naturally in food. Folate is primarily involved in cell division and is required for the synthesis of nucleotides and red blood cells. Folate requirements increase during pregnancy due to cell division and metabolism for healthy placental and fetal development. Unfortunately, approximately 20% of Canadian women of childbearing age do not achieve the recommended amount of folate for pregnancy. Supplementation has been shown to be the most effective method of increasing folate levels and is superior to food intake. Daily supplementation of 400 mcg of folic acid during the first trimester of pregnancy helps to reduce the risk of neural tube defects by about 50%. However, a daily intake of 800 mcg could reduce the risk by almost 70%.
Dosage
Adults: Take one capsule daily or as directed by your healthcare professional.
