Methyl Support is a unique formula that contains the biologically active, methylated form of folate called L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (L-5-MTHF). Many B vitamin supplements contain folic acid, which requires additional metabolism and enzymes before it is readily utilized by your body. BioFolate® found in Methyl Support provides pure calcium L-5-MTHF for supporting healthy folate status, regardless if you lack the necessary enzymes to properly utilize folic acid.

BENEFITS

  • Supports healthy fetal development
  • Helps maintain proper homocysteine levels by supporting methylation
  • Supports balanced moods and a positive mental outlook
  • Aids in the relief of occasional nervous tension
  • Helps maintain healthy cardiovascular function
  • Required for optimal detoxification
  • Plays a role in DNA and RNA synthesis
  • Helps form red blood cells
  • Needed to help cells grow

Dosage
Take one capsule per day, or as directed by your health care professional.

Description

Research suggests that folate can support cardiovascular health by effectively promoting healthy homocysteine levels.◆ L-5-MTHF is the preferred form of supplemental vitamin B9 for many people as there are a number of common polymorphisms of folate metabolism, which can lead to imperfections in critical biosynthetic pathways (and ultimately, health complications).

Vitamin B9 (folate) has extensive actions in the human body, with research showing it is necessary for a multitude of vital processes, such as supporting DNA synthesis, supporting healthy homocysteine metabolism, nervous system support, promoting energy production, promoting healthy cellular integrity, supporting healthy hormone metabolism, and more.Ï„2 Unfortunately, the folic acid found in food and many multivitamin supplements needs to go through several enzymatic conversions to be converted to its bioactive form L-5- MTHF. Research suggests that folate can support cardiovascular health by effectively promoting healthy homocysteine levels.Ï„ L-5-MTHF is the preferred form of supplemental vitamin B9 for many people as there are a number of common polymorphisms of folate metabolism, which can lead to imperfections in critical biosynthetic pathways (and ultimately, health complications).3

Research cited herein suggests Biofolate® L-5-MTHF can help support healthy folate status, especially in individuals who don’t properly metabolize folic acid into its biologically active form.
