## Overview

This high potency L-Methylfolate supplement provides 8500 mcg of the active 5-MTHF form, designed to support healthy homocysteine levels linked to cardiovascular and cognitive health. Gluten-free, non-GMO, and vegetarian, it offers superior bioavailability by bypassing the body's need to convert folic acid, ensuring maximum efficacy backed by over 40 years of scientific research.

## Description

Maintaining normal levels of homocysteine, a metabolic byproduct, is associated with both cardiovascular and cognitive health. Folate, a B vitamin, helps maintain homocysteine levels already within normal range. However, not everyone can efficiently convert folate to its biologically active form. Our formula provides 5-MTHF, so you don’t have to. The 5-MTHF folate in High Potency Optimized Folate is an ultra-bioavailable form of the B-vitamin commonly called folic acid.
