What is Folic Acid?

Folic acid is a member of the water-soluble B vitamin family, it is also known as folacin or folate. It was first discovered in the ***0s when it was extracted from spinach. Folate gets its name from the Latin word folium ("leaf"). It should be replenished daily due to the fact that the body cannot store it for long periods of time. Folic acid deficiency is the most common vitamin deficiency in the world. Half of the folic acid in foods is depleted through cooking, processing and long-term storage, thus supplementation of this vital nutrient is highly recommended. Leafy vegetables such as spinach, turnip greens, lettuces, dried beans and peas, fortified cereal products, sunflower seeds and certain other fruits and vegetables are rich sources of folic acid.
