Folic acid

Folic acid. Computer model of a molecule of the water-soluble vitamin folic acid (vitamin B9 or folate, C19.H19.N7.O6). The atoms (solid tubes) of this organic molecule are colour-coded: carbon (yellow), oxygen (red), hydrogen (grey) and nitrogen (blue). Folic acid, found in leafy vegetables, is required for foetal development in pregnancy. It also ensures normal red blood cell formation and helps to maintain a healthy central nervous system. Folate deficiency can lead to the development of forms of anaemia and leukaemia. Small amounts of vitamins are an essential part of a healthy diet, providing enzyme cofactors for the varied biochemistry of body metabolism

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a computer-generated model of folic acid, a vital water-soluble vitamin also known as vitamin B9 or folate. The intricate structure of this organic molecule is artistically represented with color-coded atoms: carbon in yellow, oxygen in red, hydrogen in grey, and nitrogen in blue. Folic acid plays an indispensable role during pregnancy by supporting the healthy development of the fetus. It is abundantly found in leafy green vegetables and ensures normal formation of red blood cells while maintaining a well-functioning central nervous system. This essential nutrient acts as an enzyme cofactor for various biochemical processes within our body's metabolism. The absence or deficiency of folate can lead to severe health complications such as different forms of anaemia and even leukaemia. Therefore, it becomes crucial to include small amounts of vitamins like folic acid into our daily diet. Science Photo Library has beautifully captured this molecular illustration that not only highlights the chemical compound but also emphasizes its significance for human health. This artwork serves as a reminder that these compounds are fundamental building blocks necessary for our overall well-being.
