FOLIC ACID OR B9 | WHAT IT'S FOR AND NOT JUST FOR PREGNANT WOMEN | A nutritionist explains
Welcome to my channel!
To watch the video faster, set the speed to 1.5 :)
THE MOST IMPORTANT VITAMIN FOR PREGNANT WOMEN, BUT MUCH MORE!
Today's video is about vitamin B9, also known as folic acid. I'll tell you about dosages, its functions in the body, and why folic acid is needed not only by pregnant and breastfeeding women. I'll also tell you how vitamin B9 is used in preventative medicine for nail problems and how to identify folate cycle polymorphism.
IMPORTANT!
B9 is destroyed by heat, so we try to eat all foods containing vitamin B9 raw.
Vitamin C improves the bioavailability of folic acid.
Excess folic acid in the body can be a sign of iron or vitamin B12 deficiency. B12 helps convert inactive forms of the vitamin into active ones (meaning better absorption of B9 from dietary supplements).
The only non-toxic form of vitamin B9 today is folate. Other forms have been proven toxic!
People with AIT are more likely to have a folate cycle polymorphism (people who are unable to convert synthetic folic acid into its active form, metafolin). In this case, you should take folic acid only in its active form (metafolin). This is also helpful for people with high homocysteine levels.
All products from iHerb that I discuss in the video are my sincere recommendations, not endorsements.
