What is active folate?
Active folate is an important substance for the synthesis of hemoglobin, which can be directly absorbed and utilized by the body without a complex metabolic process.
The lack of active folate in humans can lead to disease:
* angiocardiopathy
* Pregnant women have pre-eclampsia
* abortion
* Fetal malformation, etc
