  • What Valupak Vitamins Folic Acid Are And What They Are Used For

    These vitamin tablets are designed for women of child-bearing age, this product provides 400µg/mcg Folic Acid daily. Supplemental Folic Acid intake increases maternal folate status. Low maternal folate status is a risk factor in the development of neural tube defects in the developing baby. Folic Acid also plays a role in cell division and also contributes to normal psychological function and normal blood formation.
