Folate is a water-soluble B vitamin. It is also called folic acid, folacin, or vitamin B9. Folic acid is a synthetic form of folate used in supplements or added to foods for fortification, whereas ...

Folic acid would not have been shown to reduce neural tube defects if the body did not process it properly. Folic acid is able to be processed by an enzyme called dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR). This ...
