Product Description
L-5-MTHF provides a natural‚ biologically active form of folate‚ which is essential for cell division and growth‚ and also works to balance the homocysteine pathway. This formula provides folate in the bioidentical‚ bioactive form‚ 5-methyltetrahydrofolate.
In L-5-MTHF‚ the “L” signifies that it is an all-natural [6S] isomer‚ and this is the active circulating form of folate found in the body and one of the several forms found in food. In nature‚ this is found only as this [6S] isomer‚ which is why Designs for Health uses L-5-MTHF‚ the natural isomer‚ rather than the mixed (or racemic) form.
This product uses the patented folate derivative‚ Quatrefolic®. This innovative form of folate has demonstrated high bioavailability‚ solubility‚ and long-lasting stability. Quatrefolic® L-5-MTHF has been shown to help increase blood folate levels much better than folic acid.
