L-Methylfolate 5 mg 30 caps
L-methylfolate is the activated form of folate found in food and is used by the body for many biochemical reactions. Folate supports mood, heart, and nerve health as well as normal fetal development. Unlike folic acid, L-methylfolate does not require conversion by the MTHFR enzyme, a function that may be impaired by genetic variations present in about half the population.
Based on scientific research, our L-methylfolate is a more active and bioavailable form of folate and is the only form of folate to cross the blood-brain barrier. L-methylfolate is important for normal production of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine, and is essential for converting homocysteine to methionine. Almost half of all people have genetic variations that reduce their ability to convert folate to its usable form. For this population, L-methylfolate supplementation is far more effective in providing this form of folate. Use it to help support healthy mood, cardio, and nerve function.
- Supports the production of mood balancing neurotransmitters.
- Provides most effective form of folate for those with genetic MTHFR variations.
- Offered in several strengths.
