What are the Benefits of Folate Supplements for People With Hypertension?

 

    Folic acid, B9 or folate, is a vitamin that you can get two ways: from food or a dietary supplement. It plays a vital role in health by providing the necessary ingredient to create folate. The body converts folic acid from food or supplements into folate and uses it to do everything from making DNA and RNA to divide cells. What about blood pressure, though? What impact does folate supplements have on hypertension?

 

 

 

 

What is Folic Acid?

 

    Folic acid is a synthetic form of folate available as part of a b complex vitamin supplement. There are many benefits to taking a folate supplement. It helps in the production of red and white blood cells, for example. 

 

    Folate is also critical to reduce levels of homocysteine, an amino acid that can increase your risk of blood clots. It is often given to women during pregnancy because it can reduce the risk of severe congenital disabilities and preeclampsia. 

 

 

 

 

 

Benefits of a Folate Supplement for People With Hypertension

 

    Several studies show taking a folate supplement is beneficial when it comes to high blood pressure in several ways. In 2005, doctors at Brigham and Women’s Hospital examined 150,000 records of women between the ages of 23 and 70. They found those who took folate supplements reduced their risk of developing hypertension in the first place. 

 

    The benefits of this supplement extend to those with hypertension, as well. A 2015 study published by JAMA Network looked at 20.000 adults in China, where a stroke is the leading cause of death. They found that prevention was a necessary goal since 77 percent of fatal strokes were first-time events. 

 

 

    Researchers determined a significant  reduction in the risk of  ischemic stroke with the addition of a folate dietary supplement. There was also a benefit for other composite cardiovascular events such as heart attack. A second 2017 study published in the Journal of Hypertension supports this concept. 

 

 

What to Look for in a Folate Supplement

 

    To get the most benefit, consider a vitamin b complex supplement like the one from 1 Body. It offers a patented delivery system that supports the conversion of folic acid,  B9, into its active form, methyfolate. In addition, you get the benefits from the other b vitamins, including  nervous system  support,  stress relief,  mood support,  and  overall wellbeing.

    The  American Heart Association states that more than 100 million people in this country have high blood pressure, and that number continues to rise. You can  protect yourself  in many ways, such as  eating right, staying active, and avoiding stress. Now add  taking a folate supplement from 1 Body to the list.
