5-MTHF 667 mcg DFE with B12 Capsules
Folate is important in supporting the production and maintenance of new cells. Supplementation is necessary because humans cannot synthesize folate. Kirkman® offers 5-MTHF, a more bioavailable form of folate, with added Vitamin B12, instead of Folic Acid, which has the potential to conceal Vitamin B12 deficiencies. Vitamin B12 supports the health of the body’s nerves and blood cells.† 5-MTHF (5-Methyltetrahydrofolate) is a form of folate, a water-soluble B vitamin that occurs naturally in foods. Folate deficiency is a common vitamin deficiency due to food processing, food selection, and intestinal disorders. † Biochemically, 5-MTHF supports cellular perception and response, methylation processes, and many enzymatic reactions. It is also linked to lower homocysteine levels and the production of red blood cells, which support cardiovascular health. Folate also aids the body in metabolism of protein and the formation of DNA and RNA. † Our bodies can convert 5-MTHF into other active forms
