Folate (Folic Acid)—Introduction and function

Foods rich in folate (vitamin B9) including beans, broccoli, shellfish, peanuts, liver, nuts, and spinach.

Folate is the natural form of vitamin B9, water-soluble and naturally found in many foods. It is also added to foods and sold as a supplement in the form of folic acid; this form is actually better absorbed than that from food sources—85% vs. 50%, respectively. Folate helps to form DNA and RNA and is involved in protein metabolism.

It plays a key role in breaking down homocysteine, an amino acid that can exert harmful effects in the body if it is present in high amounts.

Folate is also needed to produce healthy red blood cells and is critical during periods of rapid growth, such as during pregnancy and fetal development.

So you need active folate—that can be directly absorbed and utilized by human body.
