Its a supplement. Helps the body make healthy red blood cells and is found in certain foods. Folic acid is used to: treat or prevent folate deficiency anaemia. Help your unborn baby's brain, skull and spinal cord develop properly to avoid development problems (called neural tube defects) such as spina bifida.

Taking supplements alone is not a solution.
Treat the cause of the problem. By proper homoeopathic treatment.
The body then will heal itself.
You can consult me at Lybrate for homoeopathic treatment.

Asked for male, 8 years old from Belgaum

Hello sir, my son has been diagnosed with allergic asthma. From blood test it has been detected that he is allergic to citric acid. We have been avoiding all the eatables with citric acid. But then too he gets the severe bouts of asthma attacks. It is more often in rainy season. But in summer even if he eats citrus foods he doesn't have any problem. We have tried homeopathy as well as ayurveda but of very little help.

Actually most of the Moisturizer contain such (citric acid) strong ingredients in very very small amount which doesn't cause exfoliation but still to be very safe side (specially when already a dry season winter has started) I would not advice using all three together. Preferably stop face scrub & occasionally use mask.
