Active Folic supports normal blood formation during pregnancy. Up to 67% of the population are unable to convert folic acid to its metabolically active form. Active Folic provides L-Methylfolate, a source of folic acid in its most active, occurring form. It delivers better absorption compared to standard folic acid. Folic acid is water-soluble and is not stored in the body, so it needs to be consumed every day. Folic acid has a role to play in many functions in the body, including supporting immunity and normal blood formation. This includes supporting maternal tissue growth during pregnancy. Active Folic contains the optimal dose of folic acid, which helps to reduce the risk of developing neural tube defects (NTD) in pregnancy.
