Impact of vitamin malignant processes
The news that folic acid may to some extent increase the risk of cancer significantly stirred up the public. However, experts are reduced to the view that the use of funds in a short period has no effect on these processes.
To prove or disprove this theory long held by American scientists experiments on rodents. The researchers found that especially Folic acid is dangerous for breast cancer.
However, growth of malignant cells was observed only at high dosages, several times higher than daily requirement. A similar experiment proves the impossibility of receiving means for all patients with cancer tumors.
Some people may unknowingly consume vitamin B9, because he has composed many foods. With extreme caution should be controlled meals to all patients who have previously had cancer.
Sometimes folic acid during breast cancer does not appear to have any negative impact, especially if administered in the minimum dosage. In any case, for a group of patients with cancer use vitamin complexes is allowed only with permission of a doctor.

We should not forget that for an adult human without cancer, the dosage is no more than 400 micrograms per day. Significantly increase the amount of the drug to women during pregnancy. Because folic acid in oncology can cause the growth of cancer cells, it is forbidden to take vitamin even in minimum doses.
