QTY - 60 Vegetarian Capsules
Highly bioavailable folate as Metafolin® L-5-MTHF, 1 mg.
L-methylfolate contains Metafolin®* L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (L-5-MTHF), the active, methylated form of folate, an essential B-vitamin. L-5-MTHF requires no additional metabolic steps to be used by the body, thus it is often the preferred choice for those with absorption or metabolic defects. L-methylfolate efficiently supports methylation, DNA biosynthesis, homocysteine metabolism, and nervous system function. Supplies 1 mg (1000 mcg) folate percapsule.
Folate deficiencies are common as many individuals do not consume enough folate-rich foods and dietary folates are readily destroyed by cooking or processing. Although typically included in multivitamins, some individuals do not effectively methylate and convert folic acid into its active form thus are still at risk of deficiency. L-5-MTHF, the active, methylated form of folate, requires no additional metabolic steps to be used by the body, thus it is often the preferred choice for those with absorption or metabolic defects. L-methylfolate efficiently supports methylation, DNA biosynthesis, homocysteine metabolism, and nervous system function. Supplies 1mg (1,000 mcg) folate per capsule.
