Folic acid is a precursor to folate and is probably the most important nutrient when it comes to preconception. It is most well-known for its role in preventing neural tube defects such as spina bifida, when trying to conceive and during the first trimester of pregnancy. Unfortunately, about 1 in 3 women have difficulty absorbing folic acid due to MTHFR gene variants.

Our Activated Folate & B-Vitamins contains Quatrefolic®, a patented, biologically active form of folate that helps to bypass folic acid conversion limitations, supporting your preconception health and helping to support healthy foetal CNS/brain development in early pregnancy.
