    Questions and Answers about 21st Century, Folic Acid

    Have a Question?

    Ask a Question

    • What happens when you take folic acid every day?

      When you take folic acid every day, your body receives a consistent supply of this important B vitamin, which is crucial for cell growth and DNA synthesis. Regular intake of folic acid supports the production of red blood cells, helps prevent certain birth defects when taken before and during early pregnancy, and may contribute to heart health by helping to regulate homocysteine levels in the blood.

    • What are the benefits of taking folic acid?

      Taking folic acid offers several important health benefits. It plays a crucial role in the formation of DNA and RNA, supports cell division and growth, and is essential for the production of red blood cells. For pregnant women or those planning to become pregnant, folic acid is particularly important as it helps prevent certain birth defects affecting the brain and spine.

    • How many months should a pregnant woman take folic acid?

      Pregnant women, or those planning to become pregnant, should ideally start taking folic acid at least one month before conception and continue throughout the first trimester (about 12 weeks) of pregnancy. However, many healthcare providers recommend continuing folic acid supplementation throughout the entire pregnancy to support the increased folate demands of pregnancy and fetal development.

    • What is the best folic acid supplement for pregnancy?

      21st Century Folic Acid is a reliable option, but it's essential to choose a supplement that has been third-party tested and meets your individual needs. Consult with your healthcare provider for personalized recommendations.

    • When to take folic acid, morning or night?

      Folic acid can be taken at any time of day, as it is a water-soluble vitamin that is generally well-absorbed. Some people prefer to take it in the morning as part of their daily routine, while others may find it more convenient to take it at night. The most important factor is consistency – choosing a time that works best for your schedule and sticking to it regularly.

    • Should you take folic acid every day when pregnant?

      Yes, it is generally recommended to take folic acid every day during pregnancy. Folic acid is crucial for the proper development of the fetus, particularly in the early stages of pregnancy when the neural tube is forming. Consistent daily intake helps ensure that the body has an adequate supply of this important nutrient to support healthy fetal development throughout pregnancy.
