Folic Acid
Women 19 years and older: 1 tablet per day, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner. For best absorption, take between meals.
Folic Acid provides the maximum amount of folic acid allowed in a supplement at 1 mg per tablet. Folic acid is a vital nutrient for supporting a healthy pregnancy, protecting DNA from damage, and helping to reduce the risk of spina bifida and cleft palate.
Folic acid is essential for fetal growth and development as well as cardiovascular wellness. High-dose supplementation may decrease the risk of folate deficiency, associated with anemia and neuropathy in the mother, and the incidence of congenital abnormalities in the fetus.

It also supports healthy vision, immunity, and blood sugar levels. In men, zinc aids in testosterone production as well as supports sperm count and quality. In women, zinc promotes egg development and healthy fertilization. Dietary sources of zinc include red meat and shellfish, making this high-potency supplement especially useful for vegetarians and vegans.
