Folic Acid – 1000’s

Potential Benefits:
Supplementing with folic acid has also been associated with the following benefits:

Diabetes. Folate-based supplements may help improve blood sugar control, reduce insulin resistance, and enhance cardiovascular function in those with diabetes. These supplements may also help reduce diabetic complications, including neuropathy (22Trusted Source, 23Trusted Source, 24Trusted Source).

Fertility. Higher intake of supplemental folate (more than 800 mcg per day) is associated with higher rates of live births in women undergoing assisted reproductive technology. Adequate folate is also essential for oocyte (egg) quality, implantation, and maturation (25Trusted Source).
Inflammation. Folic acid and folate supplements have been shown to reduce inflammatory markers, including C-reactive protein (CRP), in different populations, including women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and children with epilepsy (26Trusted Source, 27Trusted Source).

Reduction of medication side effects. Folate-based supplements may help reduce the incidence of side effects related to the use of certain medications, including methotrexate, an immunosuppressant drug used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and certain cancers (28Trusted Source).

Kidney disease. Due to impaired kidney function, hyperhomocysteinemia occurs in over 80% of people with chronic kidney disease. Supplementing with folic acid may help reduce homocysteine levels and heart disease risk in this population.
