One vitamin, a thousand properties!

Folic acid intervenes in the process of cell division: being implicated as a cofactor in the formation of DNA, it comes into play every time a cell divides. This function is of particular interest at the level of rapidly regenerating tissues. Folate contributes to thenormal synthesis of amino acids and the growth of maternal tissues during pregnancy: this allows a correct development of the fetus. In particular, supplemental intake of folic acid increases the state of maternal folate. A low maternal folate status is a risk factor for the development of neural tube defects in the fetus. Folate contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, also supporting the physiological formation and maturation of blood cells. Folic acid also acts as a support for normal immune system function and normal homocysteine metabolism. Homocysteine is a substance physiologically present in the body but whose accumulation can lead to various problems.

Many studies indicate that conditions of high blood concentration of homocysteine are to be considered as a possible cardiovascular risk factor.

Folic acid, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 together with a healthy lifestyle and a varied diet contribute to normal homocysteine metabolism.
