£13.00
Unit price perActive Folic contains Quatrefolic®, a source of L-Methylfolate, which is a biologically active form of folate. It delivers better absorption compared to standard folic acid.
Folic acid is water soluble and is not stored in the body, so needs to be consumed every day. Folic acid has a role to play in many functions in the body, including supporting immunity and normal blood formation.
Folic acid is also an important nutrient during pregnancy, supporting maternal tissue growth. Active Folic contains the optimal dose of folic acid to help reduce the risk of your baby developing neural tube defects (NTD) in pregnancy₁.
Supports:
- Immunity, normal blood formation, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue₂.
- Maternal tissue growth₂.
- Reducing the risk of developing neural tube defects (NTD) in pregnancy.
Active Folic is considered one of the best folic supplements for women who are pregnant or planning to conceive. Folate plays an essential role in helping to prevent neural tube defects in babies₃, and Active Folic is also referenced on the HSE website.

- 2. Folate contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy, the normal function of the immune system, normal blood formation, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
- 3. This beneficial effect is obtained with a supplemental folic acid daily intake of 400 µg for at least one month before and up to three months after conception.
