Folic acid, also known as folate or vitamin B9, is a water-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in cell division and DNA synthesis. It is especially important during periods of rapid cell growth and development, such as pregnancy and infancy. Folic acid is essential for the formation of red blood cells and the prevention of serious birth defects in an infant's brain and spine. It also supports the processing of amino acids and the production of certain neurotransmitters. Good dietary sources of folic acid include leafy green vegetables, citrus fruits, beans, lentils, fortified grains, and supplements.
