How Fol-D Capsule works

Fol-D Capsule is a combination of four medicines : Docosahexanoic acid(DHA), Pyridoxal-5-phosphate, Methylcobalamin, and L-Methyl Folate. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) belongs to the class of medications called nutritional supplements. DHA plays a vital role in brain development. DHA decreases cholesterol and triglyceride levels, inhibits platelet aggregation and oxidation of LDL, decreases the synthesis of inflammatory markers such as prostaglandins. Overall, DHA plays a vital role in reducing the heart and circulatory disease risks. Pyridoxal-5-phosphate is a nutritional supplement that provides essential nutrients to our body and improves overall health. Methylcobalamin is a form of vitamin B12 that restores its level in the body thereby helping in treating certain anemias and nerve problems. L-methylfolate is the primary biologically active isomer of folic acid and the primary form of folate in circulation. Folic Acid is a form of vitamin B. It plays a vital role in the formation of red blood cells, which carry oxygen throughout the body. It is also essential in pregnancy due to its role in the development of the unborn baby's brain and spinal cord.
