It's urgent for us to use active folate ( Magnafolate®) to alternative Folic Acid.

release time:2021-09-16

Folic acid is very widely used as a dietary supplement and is present in all multi-vitamin preparations. More than 80 countries have introduced legislation to fortify foods with folic acid as a public health measure to lower the incidence of neural tube defects. Low folate status is a risk factor for cognitive decline and folic acid supplements have been used to lower plasma homocysteine (tHcy) in order to prevent stroke and dementia.

 
However, around 30% many people have MTHFR gene mutation and need to take a few steps to convert folic acid into 5-MTHF, what our body truly need. 
 
Besides,  Folic acid has been reported in numerous allergies, such as rashes, itching, swelling, dizziness, dyspnea, anorexia, nausea, bloating.
