Vitabiotics Ultra Folic Acid 60 Tablets with Vitamin B12 Tiredness

Why choose Ultra Folic Acid?
Ultra Folic Acid provides a simple, effective way to support your daily folic acid intake. It’s carefully balanced with vitamin B12 in a small, easy-to-swallow tablet—ideal for everyday use.

Who should take Ultra Folic Acid?
Folic acid (also known as folate or vitamin B9) is essential for overall health and wellbeing for both men and women. It’s particularly important for women who are pregnant or trying to conceive, as it plays a key role in early pregnancy.

If UK flour is fortified with folic acid, do I still need a supplement?
Yes! While the UK government has announced plans to fortify white flour with folic acid, this is only meant to increase overall dietary intake. It does not replace the need for a daily folic acid supplement. The UK Department of Health still recommends that all women trying to conceive and during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy take a daily 400µg folic acid supplement to help reduce the risk of neural tube defects, such as spina bifida.

How many tablets are in each pack?
Each pack of Ultra Folic Acid contains 60 tablets—enough for two months when taking one tablet daily.

How should I take Ultra Folic Acid?
Take one tablet per day with water or a cold drink, with or without food.

Do not chew the tablet.

Avoid taking with hot drinks like tea or coffee, as these may affect how the tablet dissolves.

Are there any side effects?
Ultra Folic Acid has no known side effects when taken as directed. Do not exceed the recommended intake. If you accidentally take too much, seek medical advice.

What nutrients are included?
Ultra Folic Acid contains folic acid (400µg) and vitamin B12, both essential for overall health.

When will I start noticing benefits?
Every individual is different, but most people begin to feel the benefits within two to three months. Regular daily intake is recommended for ongoing support.
For women planning a pregnancy, the beneficial effects of folic acid are achieved by taking 400µg daily for at least one month before and up to three months after conception.

Is Ultra Folic Acid suitable for vegans?
Yes! Ultra Folic Acid is suitable for both vegetarians and vegans.

Struggle with swallowing tablets?
You’re not alone! If you find tablets difficult to swallow, try this tip:

Chew a little food (like a banana), then place the tablet in your mouth and swallow it together with the food, followed by a drink.

You can also take the tablet with thicker liquids like yoghurts or smoothies for easier swallowing.

Some nutrients are over 100% NRV—is that safe?
Yes! The Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) is the minimum amount needed to prevent deficiency. Some vitamins and minerals are beneficial at levels above 100% NRV, and all Vitabiotics products are carefully formulated to ensure safe and effective nutrient levels, following the latest research and official safety guidelines.

Does Ultra Folic Acid contain iron?
No, Ultra Folic Acid does not contain iron. If you’re looking for an iron supplement, check out our Feroglobin® range.

Is Ultra Folic Acid gluten-free and yeast-free?
Yes! Ultra Folic Acid is free from both gluten and yeast.

Is folic acid only for pregnancy?
Not at all! While folic acid is essential during pregnancy, it’s also important for men and women of all ages. It supports immune health, normal blood formation, and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.

If you’re looking for a more comprehensive supplement, folic acid is also included in Wellman® Original and Wellwoman® Original, which offer broader nutritional support.
