FIELD NOTE:::
Folic acid is known as vitamin B9 which has vital functions. Our body needs folic acid for the synthesis, repair, and methylation of DNA. Moreover, it acts as a cofactor in many vital biological reactions. Folate has an important role in cell division and it is especially needed during infancy and pregnancy.
Note
folic acid contributes in synthesis of DNA and repair of DNA and methylate DNA and also acts as a cofactor in certain biological reactions (Weinstein et al., 2003). Basically, it is essential in abetting rapid cell division and growth, likewise in infancy and pregnancy.
Application
Folic acid is an important vitamin for both men and women. Getting enough folic acid can help decrease the risk of birth defects, and it may improve sperm count in men. They do make fertility supplements for men and women who are trying to conceive, but they are not all equal.
Dose
You should not get more than 1,000 micrograms of folic acid a day, unless your doctor prescribes a higher amount. Too much folic acid can hide signs that you lack vitamin B12, which can cause nerve damage.
