Folic acid

Folic acid (Vitamin B9)

Reproductive and fetal development support

Folic acid, also known as vitamin B9, is an essential nutrient involved in DNA synthesis and cellular division. These biological processes are particularly important during periods of rapid cell growth, such as reproduction and fetal development.

Folate participates in one-carbon metabolism together with nutrients such as vitamin B12 and choline. These metabolic pathways are involved in the synthesis of nucleic acids and amino acids and contribute to normal cellular growth and tissue formation. The Journal of Nutrition

Because of its role in cell division and development, folic acid is commonly included in nutritional strategies aimed at supporting reproductive physiology and healthy development during pregnancy.
