L-5-MTHF 8,500 mcg DFE (5 mg) Capsules (60c)

L-5-mthf provides 5 mg (8, 500 mcg dfe) of natural, biologically active folate. Folate is essential for cell division and growth and for proper homocysteine metabolism. This formula provides folate in the bioidentical, bioactive form, 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (l-5-mthf). L-5-mthf (the “l” signifying that it is the all-natural [6s] isomer) is the active circulating form of folate found in the body and one of the several forms found in food. In nature, it is found only as this [6s] isomer, which is why dfh uses l-5-mthf (as quatrefolic), the natural isomer, rather than the mixed (or racemic) form. This innovative form of folate has demonstrated high bioavailability and solubility as well as long-lasting stability. Quatrefolic l-5-mthf is superior to folic acid for helping maintain optimal serum folate. Recommended use: take one capsule per day or as directed by your health-care practitioner.
