Folic Acid is well known for the important role it plays in the health and development of an unborn baby. The Department of Health now recommends that all women planning a pregnancy as well as those during the first 3 months of pregnancy take a supplement of 400µg of Folic Acid daily. This is good advice as official data shows that 47% of women have dietary intakes below the NRV level (Nutrient Reference Value) of 200µg per day.

More recently folic acid has been in the news as it contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism which is a compound implicated in the build up of plaques within blood vessel walls. Folic acid is therefore an important nutrient in all adults’ diets, not just in pregnancy, which is one good reason to eat plenty of green leafy vegetables, a rich source of this important nutrient. All our multis contain folic acid, and the ones listed below have 400µg, (Multimax® Advance has 200µg)

"Consultant told me to take this for the rest of my life"
By , 20 Jul 2018
The liver Consultant told me to start taking this because it is something that with increasing age we have more need for.
Whether it has improved anything for me I don''t yet know, but I do think I feel better generally although I take a number of other vitamins as well as prescription medication.

"Folic Acid"
By , 01 Dec 2016
I had blood tests to check for low thyroid and was found to be deficient in Folic Acid and Vit D3. A quick check on t'internet found Nature's Best and i ordered both supplements. Only been taking them a couple of weeks so too early yet to say if they're making a significant delivery. Good service and quick delivery.

"Removes Tiredness"
By , 03 Sep 2015
Why do you use this product Folic Acid 400µg (Vitamin B9) ?

I was low in Folic Acid so my GP prescribed me some which I have now finished. Then I became tired again so now I've recently ordered this to keep myself top-up on Folic Acid.
