Yes. You can give folic acid to dogs also.
Folic acid is a water-soluble B vitamin. it is involved in DNA regulation, carbon transfers, and metabolism of the amino acid homocysteine.
Both humans and bacteria need folic acid to grow. While folic acid can cross the membrane of a human cell and enter the cell, it cannot cross the cell wall of bacteria, according to Charles Ophardt, Ph.D., Emeritus Professor of the Department of Chemistry at Elmhurst College in the "Virtual Chembook." Thus, bacteria have to make their own folic acid. They will then use the folic acid to make DNA, RNA and methionine. Methionine is an amino acid that is used to make various substances like cysteine, another amino acid, and S-adenosyl methionine, a substance used in many biochemical reactions.
Folic acid helps the body make red blood cells and can improve the symptoms of anemia by supporting the production of healthy red blood cells. However, folic acid supplements will not directly affect the underlying cause of sickle cell anemia, which is a genetic disorder affecting hemoglobin.
The chemical formula of folic acid is C19H19N7O6. Folic acid is a water-soluble vitamin B that plays a crucial role in cell division and DNA synthesis. It is commonly found in leafy green vegetables, fruits, nuts, and fortified cereals.
