Folic acid aids in fetal development of healthy newborns; boosts the effectiveness of vitamins A, D and E. Along with being needed for energy production and the formation of red blood cells, folic acid is an essential component of DNA synthesis and is crucial for healthy cell division and replication. Folic acid also may be the pregnant woman's best friend, as it is vital to the development of the nervous system in the fetus, and deficiencies in this nutrient have been linked to some forms of birth defects. Lack of folic acid may be one of the most common vitamin deficiencies, which can lead to anemia and other nutritional complications. It is needed by the body to effectively utilize pantothenic acid (B-5). Folic acid is lost in food through improper storage, overcooking, reheating, and when cooking water is discarded. Oral contraceptives may also increase the need for folic acid.
