Thank you for your feedback. At the top of the page with a list of folate rich ingredients it says "LEARN MORE ABOUT FOLATE." If you click the word "folate" there, it will take you to the definition. Please let me know if you have any trouble accessing it.
Hi-Following your instruction I was happy to find the link 'LEARN MORE ABOUT FOLATE.' After clicking on that link it too me to another page listing foods that contain folate but I don't see a definition or any info on folate. I will look again. Appreciate your help and this amazing site.

John also directs Joyful Belly's School of Ayurveda , which specializes in digestive tract pathology & Ayurvedic nutrition. John and his wife Natalie recently published Explore Your Hunger: A Guide to Hunger, Appetite & Food.John's interest in Ayurveda and digestive tract pathology was inspired by a complex digestive disorder acquired from years of international travel, including his public service work in South Asia. John's commitment to the detailed study of digestive disorders reflects his zeal to get down to the roots of the problem. His hope and belief in the capacity of each & every client to improve their quality of life is nothing short of a personal passion. John's creativity in the kitchen and delight in cooking for others comes from his family oriented upbringing. In addition to his certification in Ayurveda, John holds a bachelor's degree in mathematics from Harvard University.

Jesus expressed God's love by feeding and healing the sick. That kindness is the fundamental ministry of Ayurveda as well. |
