Vitamin B9
Vitamin B9
Vitamin B9, also known as folate, is all about growth and repair. It helps your body make new cells by supporting DNA and RNA production, which is especially important during times of rapid growth like pregnancy. B9 also plays a key role in forming red blood cells and works with other B vitamins to keep homocysteine levels in check, which supports heart health. You’ll find it in leafy greens, beans, citrus fruits, and fortified grains.
Does it really work?
Vitamin B9 is that it’s especially important for rapidly dividing cells, which is why it’s so critical during pregnancy and childhood when growth is happening quickly. It basically helps your body copy and build new cells the right way.
