Description

Folic acid is a water-soluble B vitamin. It is involved in metabolism, DNA synthesis, and supports the normal function of the hematopoietic system.

A decrease in folic acid and/or vitamin B12 levels may lead to the development of anemia.

Measurement of folic acid levels is an important component in the diagnosis of anemia and should be performed together with the assessment of vitamin B12 and iron levels.

Approximately 20% of the folic acid absorbed each day comes from dietary sources. The remaining amount is synthesized by intestinal microorganisms. Serum folate levels usually decrease within a few days after reduced dietary folic acid intake and may be low despite normal tissue stores.

Folic acid is a water-soluble B vitamin involved in the synthesis of pyrimidine and purine bases that form DNA and RNA, as well as in the formation of glutamic acid. It is essential for normal hematopoiesis, regulates regenerative and reparative processes in all organs and tissues, and has nootropic and anti-atherosclerotic properties.

Folic acid deficiency leads to the development of macrocytic anemia and hyperhomocysteinemia, which is an independent risk factor for the early development of atherosclerosis and thrombosis.

Folic acid deficiency during pregnancy may cause fetal developmental abnormalities, including chromosomal aberrations and neural tube defects.
