Description

Folic Acid and Moringa is the pregnancy supplement with 400 µg of folic acid in one tablet a day, for women trying to conceive or in the first weeks of pregnancy: folate contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy.

The test is positive, or you hope it will be soon, and everyone tells you the same thing: “take folic acid”. The point is to start in time and not skip days. That is why we did the simplest thing: a small, tasteless tablet, 400 µg, and a pack that lasts from the month before conception through the whole first trimester, and beyond.

This food supplement is right for you if…

  • you are trying for a pregnancy and want to start folic acid at least a month before conception;
  • you are in the first weeks and your gynaecologist has recommended 400 µg a day;
  • you want a small, tasteless tablet, even on days of nausea;
  • you prefer a single pack for the whole journey: 230 tablets, about 7 months.

Benefits

Folic acid has European Union authorised claims specific to pregnancy. We report them with their exact wording.

Folic acid: maternal folate and neural tube

400 µg per tablet. 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 foetus. Claim aimed at women of childbearing age: the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily supplemental intake of 400 µg of folic acid for at least one month before and up to three months after conception.

Folate: maternal tissues and blood

Folate contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy, to normal blood formation and has a role in the process of cell division.

Folate: tiredness and psychological function

Folate contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and to normal psychological function.

Organic Moringa: the RedMoringa signature

150 mg of leaf powder per tablet. Moringa is useful for digestive function and lipid metabolism.

What makes it different

A well-made basic supplement: the right dose, a big pack, an honest price.

  • Exactly 400 µg the amount set by the European claim on the neural tube, in a single tablet.
  • The whole journey in one bottle 230 tablets: from the month before conception to the end of the first trimester, and beyond.
  • Small, tasteless tablet easy to take even when your stomach is upside down.
  • Organic Moringa the signature of every RedMoringa formula, 150 mg per tablet.
  • Made in Italy notified to the Ministry of Health, vegan, lactose-free.

What the studies say

Here you will find a selection of studies on the ingredients of this formula, with dose and duration. They concern the individual ingredients, not the finished product. Folic acid before conception is one of the most studied topics in nutrition in pregnancy.

Folic acid

Randomised double-blind study1,817 women with a previous pregnancy affected by a neural tube defect, 33 centres in 7 countriesfolic acid around conceptionpericonceptional

Out of 1,195 completed pregnancies, neural tube defects were 6 in the folic acid groups and 21 in the other groups: a protective effect of 72% (relative risk 0.28) [1].

Randomised controlled trialwomen planning a pregnancy (4,753 confirmed pregnancies)multivitamin with 0.8 mg of folic acidfrom at least one month before conception to the second month

No cases of neural tube defect in the multivitamin group against 6 in the control group [2].

Systematic review for the US Preventive Services Task Force12 observational studies, over 1.2 million peoplefolic acidbefore and during pregnancy

The new studies added evidence in favour of folic acid supplementation for neural tube defects and showed no harm on multiple pregnancies, autism or maternal cancers [3].

Frequently asked questions

Folic acid, what is it used for?

Folic acid (vitamin B9) contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy, to normal blood formation, to normal psychological function and to the reduction of tiredness. The EU-authorised claim says: “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 foetus.” Claim authorised by the EU for women of childbearing age: the beneficial effect is obtained with a supplemental daily intake of 400 µg of folic acid for at least one month before and up to three months after conception. One tablet provides 400 µg.

What are the benefits of folic acid during pregnancy?

Folate is needed for cell division: during pregnancy blood volume and maternal tissues grow and the requirement increases. The EU-authorised claim explains that supplemental intake increases maternal folate status and that a low status is a risk factor for neural tube defects: this is why you start at least one month before conception and continue at least until the third month.

Where can you find folic acid?

Green leafy vegetables (spinach, cabbage, broccoli, asparagus), legumes, citrus fruit, nuts and whole grains. Food folate is lost in cooking and absorbed less than the folic acid in supplements: this is why guidelines still recommend 400 µg a day in tablets for those trying for a baby.

Can you always take folic acid?

At 400 µg a day folic acid can be taken long term: it is the amount recommended for the whole periconceptional period and, on medical advice, beyond. Outside pregnancy it contributes to normal psychological function and to the reduction of tiredness. Those taking medicines (e.g. antiepileptics) or with a vitamin B12 deficiency should talk to their doctor first.

How to take Folic Acid Supplement?

1 tablet a day with a glass of water, at any time of day. A 230-tablet bottle lasts 7 months. Always follow the instructions on the label and of your gynaecologist.
