Nutraceutical Profile

ImmunCR Id : ICR47
Chemical Name : Folate
Plant Source : Actinidia deliciosa
Nutraceutical information : Edible, Spinach, green leafy vegetables
Mode of administration : Oral, Tablets
Immunomodulatory mechanism : Contributes to normal functioning of immune system by supporting the proliferation of Treg cells; a coenzyme to transfer one-carbon units that are necessary for deoxythymidylate synthesis, purine synthesis, and various methylation reactions; maternal folate nutritional status is related to the risk of neural tube defects (ntds) in the offspring; nuritional benefit related to cardiovascular disease, cancer and cognitive functioning;
Description : Folate also known as Vitamin B9 or folic acid is a water soluble vitamin useful in the synthesis of DNA acting as cofactor of enzymes and used as a supplement during pregnancy. It exists mainly in the form of polyglutamate in foods.
