This fantastic nutritional powerhouse clears out your arteries... protects against cancer---even prevents birth defects.
Folic acid is a natural food ingredient that medical experts describe as a "nutritional powerhouse". It's a tonic that soothes jangled nerves and unclogs your arteries thus helping you to prevent heart disease and stroke.
Studies show it slashes your risk of many common cancers by 80%! Amazingly, it also protects a woman's unborn child against life-threatening birth defects of the brain and spine. Just imagine how important this is - you can spare your child or grandchild from horrifying birth defects with a simple nutritional supplement that costs but pennies a day!
Yet the vast majority of women do not know this and are leaving themselves vulnerable. Moreover, a woman's need of this nutrient's birth-defect protection is even more pronounced if she consumes alcohol, tobacco, aspirin, non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, oral contraceptives, pancreatic extracts, oestrogen, antacids, arthritis drugs such as methotrexata, and medications prescribed for convulsions, malaria, and bacterial infections. Folic acid, a natural food ingredient is a must.
