NuMedica Methyl Folate 5-MTHF supports cardiovascular, nervous system health, and homocysteine metabolism with the most active form of folate.*
Many individuals struggle to get the necessary nutrients solely from their diet, and folate is no exception. Folate, or vitamin B9, is needed for numerous bodily functions, including DNA synthesis, repair, and methylation. It also plays a vital role in cell division and growth. A methyl folate supplement like NuMedica Methyl Folate (5-MTHF) can be particularly beneficial for those with genetic variations that hinder the conversion of folic acid to its active form. By taking a methylated form of folate, you ensure that your body receives this essential nutrient in a form it can immediately utilize, supporting your cardiovascular health, neurological function, and overall well-being. Whether planning for pregnancy, seeking to support heart health, or aiming to improve your general health, NuMedica Methyl Folate (5-MTHF) provides an effective solution to meet your folate needs.
NuMedica Methyl Folate (5-MTHF) features Quatrefolic®, the most biologically active form of folate. Known scientifically as the "L" form of 5-MTHF, this methylated folate is pre-activated and ready for immediate use by the body. Unlike other forms of folate that require conversion, 5-MTHF allows for rapid uptake into the bloodstream, ensuring that your body can utilize it efficiently.
The superior form of methylated folate in NuMedica Methyl Folate eliminates the need for additional metabolic conversion. This ensures the folate is metabolically active and readily available for various bodily functions. This key feature distinguishes it from other folate supplements that might not be as readily absorbed or effective.
Folate is essential for converting homocysteine into methionine, an important process for maintaining cardiovascular health. Elevated levels of homocysteine are linked to an increased risk of heart attacks and strokes. Supplementing with NuMedica Methyl Folate can support your cardiovascular system and help reduce these risks.
Folate is critical in fetal development, particularly in preventing neural tube defects such as spina bifida. Adequate folate levels before and during early pregnancy are important for reducing the risk of these congenital malformations. Additionally, folate supports overall brain health and neurological function, benefiting expecting mothers and the general population.
Homocysteine is an amino acid that, at elevated levels, can risk cardiovascular health. NuMedica Methyl Folate helps maintain healthy homocysteine levels by facilitating its conversion to methionine. This process is vital for cardiovascular function and overall health.
Besides cardiovascular and prenatal health, NuMedica Methyl Folate supports healthy cholesterol levels and may help reduce the risk of age-related macular degeneration. These additional benefits make it a comprehensive supplement for overall well-being.
