Product Information

ANDREW LESSMAN'S METHYL FOLATE 1000 delivers 1,000 mcg of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF or Methyl Folate) - the active form of Vitamin B9, an essential B-vitamin also known as Folic Acid. Although often mistakenly viewed as a secondary B-vitamin, Folic Acid is required for the body's most critical functions, such as all cell replication, repair and DNA synthesis, making it essential during pregnancy and to support the health of our body's most vital organs and systems (heart, brain and immune). Plus, Methyl Folate can cross the blood-brain barrier, where it can deliver its brain and mood supportive benefits directly to the nervous system. Folic Acid is the typical form of Vitamin B9 found in supplements and fortified foods, but it must be converted to 5-MTHF to deliver its benefits. Unfortunately, a substantial percentage of Americans cannot convert Folic Acid into its active form and are thus deprived of its vital benefits. Our Methyl Folate (5-MTHF) already exists in its active form and can deliver its benefits to everyone without requiring any difficult or impossible chemical conversion. In short, our Methyl Folate 1000 overcomes the all too common biochemical obstacles that prevent so many of us from enjoying the critical benefits of this essential B-vitamin.
