A study shows that men who consume large amounts of folic acid have a reduced risk of stroke.
Previous research have pointed to the health benefits of an adequate intake of the B vitamin folic acid (sometimes also called folate). It seems to work by preventing the build up of the amino acid homocysteine which otherwise damages the arteries.
Researchers at Northwestern University in Illinois followed a group of nearly 44,000 men for 14 years, noting their folic acid intake. Folic acid can be taken by supplement and it is also found in grains (now fortified following US Government advice), fruits and vegetables. In this study, men taking the most folic acid – half of whom had an intake of over 821 micrograms a day – had a 30 per cent lower risk of ischemic stroke compared to those consuming around 262 micrograms of folic acid a day, or less. An ischemic stroke is one which is caused by a blood clot in the brain, while a hemorrhagic stroke is caused by bleeding. There was no link between folic acid intake and hemorrhagic stroke.
