Active Folate 1000 provides 1,000 mcg of folate per day from Metafolin^® – a pure, physiologically active and bioavailable form of the folate found naturally in foods.¹ Folate is primarily involved in cell division and is required for the synthesis of nucleotides and red blood cells.² Folate requirements increase during pregnancy as a result of the rise in cell division and metabolism necessary for healthy placental and fetal development.³ Unfortunately, approximately 20 percent of Canadian women of childbearing age do not meet the recommended amount of folate for pregnancy.³ Supplementation has been shown to be the most effective method for raising folate status, yielding superior results to dietary intake.³ Daily supplementation with 400 mcg of folic acid during the first trimester helps to decrease the development of NTD by approximately 50%; however, 800 mcg daily may help reduce the risk by nearly 70%.⁴
