Vitamin B Benefits for Allergy Control

Borrowed from Real Age) Could better allergy control come from a vitamin bottle? Maybe. A new study suggests vitamin B9, also known as folate, may help improve your immune system's ability to stand up to common allergens. The Folate Factor A national health survey of over 8,000 people revealed that higher blood levels of folate were often coupled with less severe reactions to common allergens. Specifically, the folate-lovers' blood contained fewer of the immune-system antibodies that are released during allergic reactions, and the group was, also ,less likely to report asthma or wheezing. Exciting, But Early . . . The research sounds pretty promising, especially considering that other studies have revealed an association between higher levels of folate & less risk of inflammation-related diseases, like heart disease & rheumatoid arthritis. But more studies are needed to confirm the allergy research. Regardless, getting adequate amounts of folate is a worthy health goal. Just don't go overboard.  Aim for about 700 micrograms per day -- 300 from food and 400 from supplements. Here's a list of folate-rich foods: Iron and folic acid supplements are not substitutes for a healthy diet per Stacy Wiegman, PharmD,  Try to eat foods naturally rich in these nutrients. Certain foods are natural sources of folic acid, including beef liver, leafy green vegetables, peas, broccoli, dried beans and citrus fruits and juices. In the US, folic acid is added to fortify all enriched grain products: flour, breads, cereals, pasta, rice and corn meal. Iron-rich foods include red meats (especially liver) and fish. Dried fruits and beans also have iron. Getting 700 micrograms of folate a day from food and supplements can make your RealAge 0.8 years younger.
