Folio basic 1 combines the important basic supply of folic acid, iodine, vitamin B12 and D3 in just one mini-tablet a day. As folic acid is already so important at the beginning of pregnancy, Folio basic 1 contains 800 µg of the vitamin, a dosage that helps to compensate for low folate levels in good time. Folate contributes to the growth of maternal tissue during pregnancy and can reduce the risk of a neural tube defect in the baby.¹ Vitamin B12 is an important partner of folic acid, as the two vitamins work together.

It also supports the normal formation of red blood cells and normal energy metabolism and helps the immune and nervous systems to function normally. Vitamin D3 supports the maintenance of normal bone and muscle function and contributes to a normally functioning immune system.

Folic acid is a particularly important vitamin for pregnancy, as it is necessary for cell division and for the growth of maternal tissue during pregnancy, among other things. A sufficiently high folic acid level is also essential for the closure of the embryonic neural tube, which later forms the child's central nervous system (i.e. brain and spinal cord)^.1
