ForMeds Bicaps Folate Folic Acid Folate 500 mg 60 vegan capsules

The dietary supplement Bicaps Folate from ForMeds contains up to 500 µg of well-absorbable and bioavailable folic acid in the form of folate. This is a reduced, active form of folic acid. As a result, the bioavailability is much higher than that of the normal form of folic acid.

Folic acid is essential for blood formation and is used, among other things, in the treatment of anemia. Folic acid must be taken by women before, during, and after pregnancy. Studies have shown that low plasma concentrations of folic acid in women can lead to slowed fetal development and an increased risk of congenital diseases in the unborn child.

Another important property of folic acid is its significance for the metabolism of excess homocysteine. Too low folic acid levels in the blood contribute to increased homocysteine concentrations.

Folic acid deficiency is one of the most common nutrient deficiencies occurring in modern humans. Adequate amounts are essential for the smooth functioning of our body.

In summary, the dietary supplement ForMeds Bicaps Folate contains a high proportion of the best absorbable form of folic acid. Its adequate concentration is essential for maintaining the proper function of the nervous and immune systems and the breakdown of excess harmful homocysteine. It is especially important for older people and women during pregnancy.
