Folic Acid is Hazardous to Your Health
Folic acid gets a lot of press coverage. Few reports have mentioned that folic acid is unnatural, folic acid is synthetic, and that the body cannot properly convert much folic acid into a usable folate form.
No two products are identical if made by different manufacturers and some are more “equivalent” than others.
Unlike Nutri-West, Food Research products, for example, do not contain any isolated USP vitamins nor industrial mineral salt ‘nutrients.’
Also, Standard Process Laboratories sometimes uses porcine glandulars, USP vitamins, claimed mineral salts, and/or colors, whereas none of these are in Food Research International products.
