Green leafy vegetables such as kale, broccoli, Brussels sprouts and spinach are high in folate, also known as folic acid or vitamin B9. It's important for healthy cell formation, especially for red blood cells, which carry oxygen around our bodies. Because it's water−soluble, we can't store it, so if levels drop too low, you could be at risk of folate deficiency anaemia, when there aren't enough healthy−functioning red blood cells to carry oxygen around your body. These tablets not only help you avoid folic acid deficiency, they also support immune health, psychological functions, and help reduce tiredness and fatigue. But for women who are planning a baby or in the early stages of pregnancy, this vital vitamin is doubly important, as it supports foetus development. Low levels of folate, the natural form of folic acid found in our bodies, is a risk factor for birth defects, such as spina bifida, in the unborn baby. Therefore, The Department of Health recommends that women take a folic acid 400 µg supplement from at least one month before conception until the 12th week of pregnancy to prevent this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhy is ours better?\u003cbr\u003e\nWe've created a high strength formulation to safeguard your body levels and packed 400 µg into one daily tablet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWho is this for?\u003cbr\u003e\nOur vegan folic acid tablets are especially important for all women of child−bearing age or those in the early stages of pregnancy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInformation Table\u003cbr\u003e\nPer tablet |  | % NRV\u003cbr\u003e\nFolic Acid | 400 µg | 200\u003cbr\u003e\nNRV = Nutrient Reference Value  \u003cbr\u003e\n            µg = Micrograms |\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eIngredients\u003cbr\u003e\nBulking Agents (Calcium Carbonate, Microcrystalline Cellulose), Anti-Caking Agent: Magnesium Salts of Fatty Acids, Glazing Agents (Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose, Glycerol), Folic Acid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDirections for Use\u003cbr\u003e\nAdults:\u003cbr\u003e\nSwallow 1 tablet daily with water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRecommended intake should not be exceeded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWarnings\u003cbr\u003e\nIf you are taking any prescribed medication, or have any medical conditions, always consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFood supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStore in a cool dry place, in original packaging, out of sight and reach of young children.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you experience an adverse reaction, stop taking the supplement and seek medical advice.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Healthspan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56673360183682,"sku":null,"price":8500.0,"currency_code":"LKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/1883\/0722\/files\/HS-Folic-Acid-pack-FRB-_2048px_FOLC240.png?v=1779868343","url":"https:\/\/454cart.com\/products\/healthspan-health-and-wellness-36","provider":"454 Cart","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
