Answer: Vitamin B12 (folate)

Explanation:

Vitamin B12 is commonly known as folate. This is a nutrient that helps to keep the body's nerve cell and blood cells healthy. This vitamin plays an important role in the synthesis of the genetic material in all the cells.

Dark green vegetables, eggs, milk, beef are some of the rich sources of vitamin B12. This is also important for preventing anaemia.

This vitamin can also be synthesized by the bacteria present in the colon of human beings.
