Vitamin B9, also known as folic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin. The molecular formula is C19H19N7O6. Folic acid contains one or more glutamyl groups, and most naturally occurring folic acids are in the form of polyglutamic acid.
Folic acid can be absorbed in two ways: active absorption and passive absorption through diffusion, and the absorption site is mainly in the upper part of the small intestine.
The absorption rate of reduced folic acid is higher, and the more glutamyl, the lower the absorption rate. Glucose and vitamin C can promote the absorption. The absorbed folic acid is stored in the intestinal wall, liver, bone marrow and other tissues in the body, and is reduced to tetrahydrofolate with physiological activity by folic acid reductase with the participation of NADPH, and participates in the synthesis of purine and pyrimidine.
Therefore, folic acid plays an important role in protein synthesis, cell division and growth, and promotes the formation of normal red blood cells.
As one of the essential vitamins for the growth and reproduction of body cells, folic acid will affect the normal physiological activities of the human body. Many literatures report that the lack of folic acid is directly related to neural tube defects, megaloblastic anemia, cleft lip and palate, depression, tumors and other diseases.
Human intestinal bacteria can synthesize folic acid, so it is generally not easy to be deficient. It is also widely found in meat, fresh fruits and vegetables.
