Folate, a type of vitamin B, helps maintain already-healthy homocysteine levels. However, not everyone can efficiently convert folate into an active form so the body can use it. Our formula is designed to deliver an ultra-bioavailable form of folate called folic acid (5-MTHF). - FOLATE VS. FOLIC ACID - Folic acid is a common B-vitamin supplement. After you ingest it, your body is supposed to convert folic acid into 5MTHF (5-methyltetrahydrofolate). But research shows that many people lack sufficient activity of the enzyme that’s necessary to do this. That’s why our folate formula delivers 8500 mcg DFE of 5-MTHF, saving your body the trouble. - SUPPORT ALREADY-HEALTHY HOMOCYSTEINE LEVELS - Folate helps maintain healthy homocysteine levels already within the normal range. By helping to inhibit excess homocysteine, folate supports healthy levels of this important cardiovascular health biomarker, especially over time. In some studies, 5-MTHF has been shown to be more bioavailable than folic acid. - INGREDIENTS MATTER - Sourced using only the finest raw ingredients with the purity and potency your body deserves.
