Ingredients explained
L-methylfolate (Metafolin)
L-methylfolate is the bioactive form of folate that donates methyl groups for one-carbon metabolism, supporting homocysteine remethylation and DNA and red blood cell synthesis.
Caution: Take with food if you experience stomach discomfort, and consult a healthcare professional if you use medications that affect folate metabolism or have specific methylation concerns, as folate impacts one-carbon pathways.

- Dietary Supplement
Folic Acid must first be converted to its active form by a series of biochemical steps, before it is able to be used by the body. Metafolin® (L-methylfolate) requires no conversion because it is bioidentical to the bio-active form. In other words, it is 'body-ready'. This can be useful for individuals whose bodies have difficulty converting folic acid to its active form. The active folate in this formulation promotes heart health. It also supports a healthy nervous system and the formation of healthy red blood cells.
