Folate deficiencies are common as many individuals do not consume enough folate-rich foods and folate is readily destroyed by cooking or processing. Although typically included in multivitamins, some individuals do not effectively methylate and convert folic acid into its bioactive form thus are still at risk of deficiency. L-5-MTHF, an active, methylated form of folate, requires no additional metabolic steps to be used by the body, thus it is often the preferred choice for women, children, and those with absorption or metabolic defects. L-5-MTHF efficiently supports methylation, DNA biosynthesis, homocysteine metabolism, and nervous system function.* Supplies 1,700 mcg DFE folate per capsule.Suggested UseSuggested Use: 1 capsule daily with food or as directed by a healthcare professional.Dietary ConsiderationsWheat Free Dairy/ Milk Free Gluten Free Soy Free Preservative Free Corn Free Free of Artificial Colors/Flavors Egg Free Shellfish Free Fish Free Tree Nut Free Peanut Free Casein FreeProduct InfoServing Size: 1 Vegetable Capsule Servings Per Container: 60 Disclaimer Amount Per Serving Folate (as Metafolin L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate) (1,000 mcg) DFE 1700 mcg 425% Other ingredients: Microcrystalline cellulose, vegetarian capsule (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, water), L-leucine, cellulose, silicon dioxideWarningsFree of the following common allergens: milk/casein, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, gluten, soybeans, and corn.
