Juicing Recipes for Vitamin B9

Vitamin B9 is an essential nutrient also known as folate or folic acid. Folate is only found naturally in food while folic acid is a synthesized form of vitamin B9 and is only available as a supplement. The word folate is actually derived from the Latin word folium which means ‘leaf’ because folate is found abundantly in green leafy vegetables.

Vitamin B9 is involved in a variety of important functions in the body. It is needed for the creation and the repair of DNA and therefore also needed in periods of rapid cell division such as the development of a child both in and out of the womb. For this reason a deficiency in vitamin B9 can lead to birth defects such as neural tube defects. Adequate daily intake of vitamin B9 is all the more important for pregnant women.

An adequate amount of vitamin B9 in the diet has also been associated with a reduced risk of heart disease in some studies. Vitamin B9 is needed to metabolize homo-cysteine (a chemical found in the blood that can lead to heat attacks and stroke in high levels) and reduce its levels in the blood stream. Vitamin B9 is also needed for the creation of red blood cells in children and adults, anemia can result from a deficiency.

The recommended daily dose for adults is 400mcg, pregnant women 600mcg, lactating women 500mcg and children 150-300mcg.
