Methyl Folate

Methyl folate may be helpful for a range of health concerns, including: Mood disorders – Methyl folate represents a better option for patients due to its greater bioavailability and lack of side effects. Homocysteine reducer – A folate enriched diet, or supplementation with bioavailable methyl folate has been shown to lower homocysteine levels, an amino acid associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular problems. Diabetic peripheral neuropathy – A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial found that patients with diabetic neuropathy experienced quality of life improvements with methyl folate. Skin disorders – A recent 2013 study found high proportions of methyl folate in the epidermis, even as serum folate levels dropped. This has suggested it as a potential UV skin protectant and an option for skin conditions such as psoriasis.

Methyl Folate is the most active form of folic acid. Excellent for those that have trouble converting folic acid into its active form. We use only fully stabilized Quatrefolate, the best form available.
