Description
How It Works: Folate consumed in the diet or from supplements must be converted to its active form, 5-Methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF), to be used by the body. This is a multi-step biochemical process that, in some circumstances, may not be efficient enough to meet the body's needs. In addition, unlike folic acid, 5-MTHF can penetrate the blood-brain barrier. CODE P0492 V1 Natural color variation may occur in this product. ~ Superior bioavailability
