Folic acid - per kg

Folic acid, also known as Vitamin B9 or folate, is a water-soluble B vitamin essential for various bodily functions, particularly in DNA and RNA synthesis. It plays a crucial role in the production of red blood cells and is vital during periods of rapid cell division, such as pregnancy and infancy. Folic acid is particularly important for preventing neural tube defects (NTDs) in developing fetuses, making it recommended for women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.Folic acid is the synthetic form of folate, which occurs naturally in foods like leafy green vegetables, beans, and citrus fruits. Since the body cannot produce folic acid on its own, dietary intake or supplementation is necessary to prevent deficiencies, which can lead to anemia and other health issues. Common sources of folic acid include fortified foods such as cereals and bread, as well as dietary supplements
