Product description

Methyl Folate provides 1,000 mcg of Metafolin, a patented form of (6S) 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF). 5-MTHF is the naturally occurring, predominant form of folate commonly found in cells and is essential for overall health, as it participates as a cofactor in a reaction that involves the remethylation of homocysteine to methionine. Metafolin is directly usable by the body and has been shown to be the only form of folate to cross the blood-brain barrier.

For 60 years, Douglas Laboratories has been dedicated to ensuring that the products we deliver are the highest quality available.

Vitamins, minerals and amino acids form the brick-and-mortar foundation of a healthy body. The 2015 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee reported that many Americans fall short in obtaining sufficient quantities of these important nutrients, including vitamins A, C, D and E, folate, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and fiber. Also, the prevalence of insufficient nutrient intake tends to increase with age. 35 to 40 percent of older adults who do not take supplements have inadequate B6 intake, and older adults often have difficulty obtaining enough B12 from their diet. Supplementation with vitamins, minerals and amino acids can play a valuable role in helping to fill these gaps.*
