Properties and Effects of Synfoline® (Folic acid 400mcg)
Folic acid is essential for normal growth and development of the fetus and the child in the period before pregnancy, during pregnancy and during breastfeeding.
Folic acid helps the normal development of the nervous system of the fetus, preventing 50 to 70% of defects of the neural tube. A lack of folic acid (vitamin B9), may increase the chance of neural tube birth defects (NTD), such as spina bifida (when spine and spinal cord do not form properly) and anencephaly.
By the 28th day of pregnancy the neural tube of the fetus is already closed. Sometimes, the pregnant woman still does not know about her pregnancy. Therefore, it’s highly important for women who are planning a pregnancy, to start the intake of folic acid, at least, three months before it and minimum during the first 12 weeks of gestation.
The intake of folic acid is not necessary only in pregnant women. It’s intake through supplements are also beneficial for the body during other health conditions, such as: anemia, heart and blood vessels diseases, high blood pressure, depression, infertility, neuroses, insomnia, decreased immunity, problems with metabolism, infections, weak memory, stress and chronic fatigue.
Lack of folic acid often occurs in people who have problems with the digestive system, kidneys, liver or consume alcohol.
