Abstract [en]

This article reviews briefly information regarding important food sources for folate, effects from storage and processing on folate content, and bioprocessing techniques that could provide foods with increased folate content. Thereafter, folate intake, absorption, metabolism, and bioavailability are also discussed. Finally, health effects associated with folate are presented briefly.
