B12 and Folic Acid is a beneficial supplement that aids metabolic processes. Folic Acid is essential during pregnancy to prevent some birth defects. Forever B12 Plus is supplied in a time released formula.
Vitamin B12 and Folic acid are intricately involved in metabolic processes. Since vitamin B12 works to reactivate folic acid, a deficiency of B12 results in a folic acid deficiency, if its levels are only marginal. B12 works with Folic Acid to reduce homocysteine levels in the body. Raised levels of this amino acid have been linked with increased risk of heart disease and Alzheimers disease. Folic Acid is critical to cell replication and a deficiency during pregnancy is linked to birth defects such as Spina Bifida.
Folic Acid supplementation during pregnancy is now standard UK advice for pregnant women. Forever B12 Plus contains 400mcg of Folic Acid and 500mcg of Vitamin B12. The formula is based on time release technology, which provides a slow release of the ingredients providing a steady intake of the active ingredients to the body. Now you can enjoy the benefits of vitamin B12 and Folic Acid together.
Folic acid is recommended during pregnancy to avoid birth defects. Take one daily, preferably after a meal.
