90% of the population have folate deficiency, which is associated with both inadequate intake of folate-containing food and impaired function of the folate cycle enzymes. Due to a high prevalence among the population of genetic polymorphisms of the folate cycle enzymes, the use of a multivitamin-mineral complex containing folates in a biologically active form is pathogenetically justified.
