Researchers at the UCLA Stroke Center report that folic acid does not seem to prevent stroke. Their results are based on a review of clinical trials with over 39,000 participants. Previous studies have linked a chemical in the blood, experts say reduced folic acid in reducing the rate of stroke. Stroke is one of the three main diseases of the elderly in accordance with the American Association for Critical Illness Insurance, the organization of the national education system.
Researchers at the Centre of Disease at UCLA in Los Angeles has identified 13 well-designed clinical studies, folic acid and stroke. Participants in all studies had been diagnosed with such conditions as kidney and heart disease, and stroke. There were 784 strokes among 20 415 participants taking folic acid, compared to 791 strokes among 18,590 people who took supplements are reported.
The analysis in the Journal of the American Heart Association against the disease, has been published, addresses the question of whether foods with folic acid lead to a significant reduction in stroke. "The answer was 'no'," reports the PI.
However, the researchers suggested further studies of folic acid and stroke, particularly for men and heart disease in advance. Information on these two groups are proposed to have an influence, even if researchers can not determine whether this is due to chance.
These potential benefits in studies in countries where food has not been registered, folic acid performed. In the U.S., the benefits of folic acid subsidies have already been food fortification. In an attempt to reduce birth defects spina bifida, said U. S. Food and Drug Administration folic acid to enriched grain products to add all seeds, from the year 1998.
