What it is

Folic acid is a synthetic form of the B vitamin folate. Folate is naturally found in many foods. Folic acid is typically produced industrially through chemical synthesis.

Why it's used

Folic acid is added to foods as a nutrient to help increase folate intake in the general population. It is commonly found in enriched grain products such as bread, pasta, and cereals, as well as in some baked goods.

Health notes

In the US, folic acid is a permitted nutrient supplement and is added to certain foods. The FDA has established requirements for the fortification of specific foods with folic acid to reduce the risk of neural tube defects. JECFA has evaluated folic acid and established an acceptable daily intake. Evidence suggests adequate folate intake is important for cell growth and development.

Allergen info

Folic acid is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
