FOLIO 1 basic iodine-free film-coated tablets

from the time you want to have children until the end of the 12th week

Folio 1 basic iodine-free contains three important ingredients: folic acid, vitamin B12 and vitamin D3. The product does not contain iodine and is recommended for those who cannot take additional iodine for medical reasons.
Folio 1 basic iodine-free (phase 1) provides the ideal amount of folic acid with 800 micrograms of folic acid from the time you want to have children until the end of the 12th week of pregnancy. The vitamin is particularly needed because it plays a role in cell division and contributes to the growth of maternal tissue during pregnancy.
Folic acid is combined with 9 micrograms of vitamin B12 in the Folio 1 basic iodine-free tablets. The two vitamins are dependent on each other in the methylation cycle, so an adequate vitamin B12 intake is just as necessary as an adequate folic acid status.
Vitamin D3 supports the maintenance of normal bones and muscle functions and contributes to a normally functioning immune system. Folio 1 basic iodine-free contains 20 micrograms of vitamin D3.
The vitamin D3 in the Folio 1 basic iodine-free tablets is obtained from sheep's wool and then purified to such a level that no traces of animal DNA can be detected.

How Folio 1 basic works, iodine-free

The micronutrients folic acid, vitamin B12, vitamin D3 and iodine play a special role for the (expectant) mother. If additional iodine intake is not recommended for medical reasons, Folio 1 basic iodine-free is the right choice.

Folic acid is a particularly important vitamin for pregnancy because it is necessary for cell division and the growth of maternal tissue during pregnancy. The vitamin also plays a crucial role in the closure of the neural tube in the embryo, which takes place in the first four weeks of pregnancy. At this point, most women often don't even know they are pregnant. Accordingly, there should be a sufficiently high folic acid status right from the start of pregnancy, which can be achieved if a folic acid supplement is taken from the time you want to have children. An intake of 800 micrograms is recommended, as with this concentration the necessary erythrocyte folate level can be built up within a few weeks. With the intake of 400 micrograms of folic acid, it takes longer, approximately 10-12 weeks.

Vitamin B12 is the cofactor of methionine synthase, which transfers a methyl group from 5-methyl-tetrahydrofolate to homocysteine ​​in the methylation cycle, creating methionine. If there is a lack of vitamin B12, this methyl group transfer does not take place, even if enough folate is present (so-called “folate trap”). Since this dependence of vitamins exists, it is essential to ensure an adequate supply of vitamin B12 at the same time. The focus here is particularly on women who consume little or no meat or fish. In women who want to have children and are pregnant, vitamin B12 also contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous and immune systems, to the normal formation of red blood cells and to normal energy metabolism.

Vitamin D3 has the property of supporting the maintenance of normal bones and muscle functions and contributing to a normally functioning immune system.

Folio 1 basic iodine-free contains the vitamins folic acid, vitamin B12 and vitamin D3. With one mini tablet daily, the diet of women who want to have children and pregnant women is supplemented sensibly and specifically. For optimal preparation for pregnancy, Folio 1 basic iodine-free with 800 micrograms of folic acid should be used when you want to have children and this dosage should be continued until the end of the 12th week of pregnancy.
