We investigated how folic acid affects blood clotting, particularly when exposed to carbon black (CB), a common industrial substance. In our study with adult C57BL/6 mice, we found that prolonged exposure to CB led to increased blood clotting potential due to changes in the spleen, where extra blood cell production occurs.
Notably, we observed that CB exposure caused an increase in certain cells responsible for blood clotting, while decreasing folic acid levels in the bloodstream. This drop in folic acid seemed to correlate with heightened levels of prostaglandin E2, a compound that can drive inflammation and increase blood clotting.
When we supplemented the mice with folic acid, we noted a reduction in the negative effects of CB on blood clotting. This protective effect appeared to stem from folic acid's ability to inhibit the enzymes involved in the excessive production of prostaglandins by splenic macrophages. Overall, our findings suggest that folic acid supplementation could be a valuable strategy to mitigate the heightened risk of thrombosis associated with carbon black exposure.

Bluebonnet Nutrition EarthSweet Chewables Vitamin B-12 & Folic Acid is a convenient and palatable way to support my energy levels and overall health. Each chewable tablet provides a combination of vitamin B-12 and folic acid, which are vital for energy production, brain function, and red blood cell formation. The raspberry flavour is naturally sweetened and quite enjoyable, making it easy to incorporate into my daily routine. This chewable format is especially helpful for those who find it difficult to swallow pills. Nevertheless, the sweetness may be a tad intense for some, so it’s crucial to ensure the dosage meets my nutritional needs. Overall, it's a delightful and effective supplement for maintaining essential B-vitamin levels.

Improved leg cramps

Thank you for the vast assortment! I appreciate the combination of essential B12 with it. The chewable format is ideal for those who need to chew. The colourful tablets and dosage allow for self-regulation based on individual needs. I've been taking folic acid to correct a vitamin deficiency I’ve had since childhood. This deficiency is quite common, and it helps with tired legs syndrome and anemia. Folic acid is quickly consumed and should be replenished daily, particularly for those who need more, including children and pregnant women. Our family has experienced notable improvements thanks to Bluebonnet’s quality products, including a reduction in leg cramps and recovery from depressive symptoms. Vitamins are vital for restoring health.
