5-MTHF 5mg 60c

5-MTHF by Thorne is a biologically active form of the B-vitamin folic acid. This form of folate is the most easily absorbed and utilized form of folate in the body, making it unique in the marketplace. 5-MTHF is essential for a number of important bodily functions, such as the conversion of homocysteine to methionine, which helps provide methyl groups for numerous other biochemical reactions. This form of folate may help support cardiovascular health, nervous system function, normal cellular proliferation, and gingival health. Furthermore, folate supplementation during pregnancy has been shown to potentially reduce the risk of neural tube defects.

 

It is especially important for women of childbearing age to get enough folic acid, as the greatest need is during the early stages of pregnancy when some women may not even be aware of the pregnancy. 5-MTHF by Thorne is a safe and effective way to incorporate folate into one's diet, as it does not contain any artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives and is suitable for vegetarians.

 

Thorne suggest taking 1 5-MTHF capsule one to three times daily or as directed by your healthcare provider.
