Vitamin B9 is much better known by the chemical name "folic acid". Like all vitamins of the group, folic acid supports the metabolism of substances and energy of the cells of the body. In addition, folic acid performs important functions in cell division and cell growth. The building of genetic material, red blood cells and muscles function smoothly with only folic acid. Anemia, skin changes and difficult wound healing can be manifestations of a lack of folic acid or vitamin B9. During pregnancy, consistent coverage of daily needs is generally recommended, as abnormalities in unborn babies are associated with a lack of folic acid. Folic acid can have a positive effect on blood vessels, and therefore there should be enough of it in case of cardiovascular diseases. Vegetables are a valuable supplier of folic acid. Especially spinach, cabbage, broccoli and tomatoes contain a lot of it. But also whole grains, eggs, wheat germ and soy products contribute to an adequate supply of folic acid. Depending on the particular food product, the absorption of folic acid in the intestine differs. Folic acid deficiency is more common than previously thought. Folic acid supplements can be a useful addition to food. Folic acid increases appetite, is effective against anemia and protects against birth defects, parasites in the digestive system and food poisoning. It provides a good texture to the skin and acts as an analgesic to relieve pain. It also improves the production of breast milk and counteracts the loss of hair color.
