Folic acid, a vitamer of vitamin B9 commonly added to fortified foods and dietary supplements, is 0.7–1.0 times more bioavailable than vitamers of vitamin B9 found in minimally processed foods. Differences in digestion and absorption account for the notable differences in bioavailability between vitamers of vitamin B9. Forms of vitamin B9 that occur in minimally processed foods, sometimes referred to as "food folates", require digestion by enzymatic hydrolysis prior to absorption whereas folic acid does not.
