Nature's Field Folite is a premium-quality Folic Acid (Vitamin $B_9$) supplement designed for maximum absorption. Folic acid is a crucial B-vitamin that the body uses to produce and maintain new cells. Because the human body cannot store large amounts of folate, daily supplementation with Folite ensures you have the necessary levels for vital biological processes, especially DNA synthesis and red blood cell formation.
This product is a fundamental nutrient for cellular health and pregnancy. It is used for:
Prenatal Health: Critically important before and during early pregnancy to support the healthy development of the baby's neural tube (brain and spine).
Heart Health: Helping to manage homocysteine levels in the blood; healthy homocysteine levels are associated with better cardiovascular and arterial health.
Blood Health: Supporting the production of healthy red blood cells to prevent megaloblastic anemia.
Cellular Repair: Aiding in DNA synthesis and repair, making it essential for rapid cell growth and general tissue maintenance.
Mood & Cognitive Support: B-vitamins like folate play a role in neurotransmitter synthesis, which can influence mood and mental clarity.
Folic Acid (400mcg): This is the internationally recommended daily dose for most adults and the specific "gold standard" amount for women of childbearing age to prevent birth defects.
Standard Adult Dose: Usually one (1) tablet daily.
Pregnant Women: While 400mcg is the standard, your doctor may recommend a higher dose based on your specific health profile.
Consistency: Take your Folite tablet at the same time every day to maintain a steady level in your system.
With or Without Food: Folite can be taken on an empty stomach or with a meal. If you have a sensitive stomach, taking it with food is recommended.
Swallow Whole: Take the small, easy-to-swallow tablet with a glass of water.
Pre-Conception Planning: If you are planning to conceive, it is best to start taking Folite at least one to three months before becoming pregnant.
Vitamin $B_{12}$ Interaction: High doses of Folic Acid can sometimes hide a Vitamin $B_{12}$ deficiency. If you have anemia, ensure your doctor checks both your Folate and $B_{12}$ levels.
Medication Interaction: Certain medications (like some anti-seizure drugs or Methotrexate) can interfere with folate absorption. Consult our pharmacist if you are on chronic medication.
Not a Replacement: While essential, Folite should be part of a balanced diet rich in leafy greens, beans, and citrus fruits.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and keep the bottle tightly closed to protect the tablets from moisture.
Indicated For: Women planning pregnancy, pregnant women (especially in the 1st trimester), individuals with high homocysteine levels, and anyone looking to support their cardiovascular and blood health.
Q: Why do I need 400mcg specifically?
A: Global health organizations (like the WHO) recommend 400mcg of folic acid daily for all women of childbearing age because many pregnancies are unplanned, and the neural tube closes very early in the first trimester.
Q: Can men take Folite?
A: Yes. Men also need folic acid for DNA repair, red blood cell production, and heart health. It is not just a "pregnancy vitamin."
Q: Does it have side effects?
A: Folic acid is generally very well tolerated. In very rare cases of extremely high doses, some people might experience mild nausea or sleep disturbances.
