Folate deficiency impairs DNA synthesis, so the nuclei of immature red blood cells are unable to divide and the cells grow large
xxTIMURxx [149]

Folate deficiency impairs DNA synthesis, so the nuclei of immature red blood cells are unable to divide and the cells grow larger than normal. This condition is called macrocytic anemia.

<h3>What is folate deficiency anemia?</h3>
  • The red blood cells in folate-deficiency anemia are excessively big. Macrocytes are this type of cell.
  • When they are discovered in the bone marrow, they are also known as megaloblasts.
  • This anemia is also known as megaloblastic anemia for this reason.
  • When your body doesn't get enough folate, it develops a folate deficiency.
  • Symptoms include fatigue, weakness, mouth sores, and neurological issues.
  • A diet rich in folate-rich foods can help prevent folate insufficiency.
  • Haemoglobin, a component of red blood cells, is used to transport oxygen throughout the body.
