Folic Acid & Docosahexaenoic Acid Soft Gelatin C
Evitalife Life Science presents Folic Acid & Docosahexaenoic Acid Soft Gelatin Capsules, a specialized formulation designed to meet the critical needs of maternal and neurological health. This combination of Folic Acid, an essential B vitamin, and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA), an omega-3 fatty acid, has become one of the most widely recommended supplements for women during preconception, pregnancy, and lactation, as well as for supporting brain and cardiovascular health in general populations.
Folic Acid (Vitamin B9) is essential for DNA synthesis, red blood cell production, and neural tube development. It is well established that folic acid deficiency during pregnancy can lead to neural tube defects and other developmental complications in the fetus. Supplementation helps prevent anemia, supports cell regeneration, and enhances overall vitality.
Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) is a long-chain omega-3 fatty acid vital for brain development, vision, and cognitive performance. It makes up a significant portion of the structural fat in the brain and retina, playing an irreplaceable role in neuronal signaling and visual acuity. In adults, DHA supports cardiovascular health, reduces inflammation, and promotes neurological function.
Health Benefits and Applications
The combination of folic acid and DHA brings together the best of micronutrient supplementation and essential fatty acid therapy.
For expectant mothers, folic acid ensures proper neural tube formation in the developing fetus, reducing risks of congenital anomalies, while DHA supports optimal brain and eye development. Together, they form a gold-standard prenatal supplement, widely recommended by healthcare professionals across the globe.
Beyond pregnancy, folic acid supports red blood cell production and energy metabolism, helping to prevent megaloblastic anemia and fatigue. DHA continues to provide benefits throughout life, enhancing memory, concentration, and mood stability while reducing cardiovascular risks.
The antioxidant properties of DHA also protect cells from oxidative damage, while folic acid contributes to homocysteine regulation, further supporting heart health.
Clinical Importance
Clinical studies consistently confirm the importance of folic acid supplementation for women of childbearing age, as neural tube formation occurs in the earliest weeks of pregnancy, often before a woman even realizes she is pregnant. DHA supplementation during pregnancy has been shown to improve birth outcomes, enhance infant brain development, and support maternal well-being.
Together, folic acid and DHA also contribute to healthy aging. DHA helps reduce the risk of cognitive decline, while folic acid supports DNA repair and neurological function, making the formulation relevant across multiple life stages.
