Folic acid plays an important role in metabolism. It is necessary for the formation of many proteins and amino acids, and it depends on it whether they can be synthesized quickly and in sufficient quantities for the body. This is why folic acid is so important for the proper functioning of processes that involve intensive cell growth and division — such as during pregnancy. Folic acid is involved in hematopoiesis, affecting the formation of red blood cells and blood clotting. It was found that it reduces the content of amino acids harmful to the heart in the blood — homocysteines, the excess of which also serves as one of the causes of thrombophilia. Folic acid is required for the functioning of the nervous tissue and immune system. In addition, it is necessary for maintaining normal cholesterol levels, has a positive effect on fat metabolism in the liver and the state of the gastrointestinal tract, and participates in the absorption of many useful substances. The occurrence of folic acid deficiency in the body is influenced by the following factors: :

• insufficient consumption of animal products;
• a low proportion of fresh and raw vegetables in the diet (folic acid is destroyed by light during storage and thermal processing);
• chronic enterocolitis;
• resection of the small intestine;
• a medication that violates the absorption of folic acid (sulfamide, anticonvulsant and antimalarial drugs, methotrexate, barbiturates, etc. );
• lack of vitamin b 12;
• the use of alcohol.

With insufficient intake of folic acid:

• mental abilities decrease;
• hyperchromic anemia develops;
• hematopoiesis is disturbed;
• the frequency of infectious diseases increases;
• the digestive system worsens;
• the tongue, mucous membranes of the mouth and stomach become inflamed;
• the risk of bleeding in the digestive tract increases;
• diarrhea occurs.

Additional intake of folic acid is necessary for the prevention of various types of anemia; normalizes hematopoiesis; reduces the content of potentially harmful amino acids (homocysteines) in the blood, which reduces the risk of blood clots; improves the functional state of the liver and gastrointestinal tract; positively affects the immune system and emotional state; favorably affects the appearance of skin, hair, nails.
