For Women: In recent years, governments around
the world are recommending 400 mcg of Folic Acid supplements to be taken by all women hoping
to conceive and also during the early weeks of pregnancy.
As with other members of the B family, Folic Acid is required by the body for the formation of red blood
cells.
It is the synthetic form of ‘folate’ (a B vitamin found in dark green leafy vegetables, which is often destroyed
by cooking or even long-term storage (see much more information in our well known ebook (It's currently discounted) It
is not known how folate works but it is said to help prevent heart disease and cognitive function by
improving blood flow and reducing levels of the naturally occurring amino acid 'homocysteine', which can
damage arterial blood vessels and possibly brain cells.
In a study of a variety of nutrients, folic acid proved to have the biggest effect in lowering the risk of
mental deterioration associated with Alzheimer’s. In a study, volunteers who consumed at least 400mcg of folic
acid had 55% less risk of contracting the disease.
The body cannot actually store this vital nutrient so experts recommend a daily supplement of at least
400mcg.
For Men: Folic acid is known to play a significant role in the fight against Prostate cancer. Folic
acid is essential for the proper synthesis and repair of DNA and therefore for cell division.
Although commonly referred to as an essential vitamin for pregnant women, new findings have found that folic
acid is just as important for men.
