What is folate?



Folic acid, also called folate or folacin, is a B-complex vitamin most
publicized for its importance in pregnancy and prevention of pregnancy
defects. These defects involve malformation of a structure in the fetus
called the neural tube. As the baby develops, the top part of this tube
helps form the baby's brain, and the bottom part unfolds to become the
baby's spinal column.

Folate also known as Folic acid or B9. It is an essential vitamin that is necessary for nearly every type of body function and used to make red blood cells, and they also partner with other vitamins to catalyze your cell metabolism and the production proteins. It also helps to make both DNA and RNA.
