The benefits of Vitamin b9 are many but what are the sources of it? Vitamin b9 can be found in many food sources as well as vitamin supplements.
Probably the richest source of Vitamin b9 is found in green leafy vegetables such as spinach, turnip greens, broccoli and collards. In fact uncooked spinach is the greatest source of vitamin b9. Cooked vegetables unfortunately lose much of the folic acid (b9 vitamin) due to the heat.
Organ meats such as liver and kidney provide a good amount of vitamin b9 also, As well as shellfish, pork and poultry. Grains, fortified cereals, nuts have also been found to have vitamin b9 in them. In many countries flour is fortified with folic acid so the general public can benefit from the benefits of vitamin b9.
Large amounts of alcohol consumption may lead to the absorption of folic acids as well as large doses of aspirins.
