FOLIC ACID FOODS

It's important to note that folic acid and folate are two very different entities. Folic acid is the chemical form or synthetic form of the natural occurring folate found in certain foods. So to say that folic acid foods or foods rich in folic acid are a misnomer, and a huge misnomer at that. Rest assured that the body does and will not get the benefits of synthetic folic acid found in vitamin supplements as compared to whole foods that contain the natural source referred to as folate.

There are a plethora of foods that carry the natural form, folate, in abundance. It is these foods that we should concentrate on to get our daily dose of folate and other excellent naturally occurring co-factors. Folate is important for everyone, but is of special concern for pregnant women as folate has been found to help the fetus develop normally. It is also important to realize that folate is a plant-derived nutrient for the most part. Plant nutrients are often referred to as phytonutrients. This brings us back to the mainstay that plenty of fruits and vegetables are of healthy and long-lived diet.

If consuming a healthy diet, there is no reason to believe that one would suffer from a folate deficiency at any time soon. Also, if consuming a healthy diet there is no reason to have to depend upon the chemical and synthetic form of folate, called folic acid. The bottom line is chemical nutrition does little to good in the body and may even cause harm. Research coming from Europe is starting to show that mega doses of synthetic vitamins actually accelerate lung tumor growth. While surprising, this news is also not surprising as the fact remains that most vitamins are simply chemicals. In addition, chemicals have been proven 1000 times over to harm the body in the long run.

It is true that we are busier than ever and it is difficult to fit in the healthful nutrition we require to stay at our peak. If taking vitamins or supplements be sure that you take concentrated whole food supplements like Body Balance.
