Folate, also known as vitamin B9, is a water-soluble vitamin that plays an important role in the division and growth of cells and the synthesis of nucleic acids, amino acids, and proteins.

So what is the relationship between folate and the function of human reproductive system?

(1) Male Folate deficiency leads to sperm aging

For men, Folate not only affects sperm count and motility, but also affects sperm release. Men who lack Folate may have more immature sperm released into the vas deferens, which is not conducive to fertility.

(2) Female Folate deficiency leads to abnormal ovarian secretion and follicular degeneration

In women, Folate helps maintain the endocrine (sex hormone) function of the ovaries.

Therefore, for better physical, mental and reproductive health, we need to supplement with better Folate.
