Folate 5,000 Plus -
Activated folate, vitamin B12 and B6 combination*
Folate 5,000 Plus provides 5,000 mcg of folate as 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF), the universally metabolized and biologically active form of folate, combined with activated vitamins B12 and B6. Optimal levels of these B vitamins have been associated with cellular, cardiovascular, neurological and psychological health. Activated B vitamins provide methyl groups to support healthy methylation, a key regulator of genetic expression and cellular function. Healthy methylation is vital for cellular health, hormone and neurotransmitter production, and energy metabolism. Research suggests that B vitamins help maintain healthy nervous system function. In a randomized controlled study, a combination of methylfolate, methycobalamin and pyridoxal-5-phosphate promoted healthy epidermal nerve fiber density and nerve comfort. These vitamins also enhance healthy endothelial function and play a vital role in the metabolism of homocysteine.
What Is It?
Folate is provided in this formula as 5-methyltetrahydrofolate
(5-MTHF), the universally metabolized and biologically active form
of folate. This form is the predominant, naturally occurring form of
folate in food. Through bypassing several enzymatic activation steps,
it is directly usable by the body and provides all of the benefits of
folic acid regardless of functional or genetic variations.*
Folate 5,000 Plus Special Features
5,000 mcg of activated folate per capsule
Combination of activated B vitamins
Made with hypoallergenic, vegan ingredients
Uses for Folate 5,000 Plus
Cellular Health: Optimal levels of folate, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12
have been associated with cellular, cardiovascular, neurological and
psychological health. 5-MTHF is the predominant, naturally occurring
form of folate in food. As genetic variations affecting activation and
metabolism of supplemental folic acid are highly prevalent, 5-MTHF
bypasses several enzymatic activation steps, offering all of the
benefits of folic acid regardless of functional or genetic variations.
This form offers superior bioavailability and can be directly used
in a diverse array of essential methylation reactions. In a doubleblind,
randomized, placebo-controlled intervention study of 144
women of child-bearing age, 5-MTHF supplementation resulted in a
greater accumulation of 5-MTHF in red blood cells than equimolar
doses of folic acid. Activated B vitamins provide methyl groups to
support healthy methylation, a key regulator of genetic expression
and cellular function. Healthy methylation is vital for cellular health,
hormone and neurotransmitter production, and energy metabolism.*
Neuronal Health: Research suggests that B vitamins help maintain
healthy nervous system function. In a randomized controlled study,
a combination of methylfolate, methycobalamin and pyridoxal-5-
phosphate promoted healthy epidermal nerve fiber density and nerve
comfort. These vitamins also enhance healthy endothelial function
and play a vital role in the metabolism of homocysteine.*What Is The Source?
Quatrefolic® (6S)-5-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid, glucosamine
salt, and pyridoxal 5’ phosphate are synthetic. Glucosamine and
methylcobalamin are derived from corn dextrose fermentation.
Hypoallergenic plant fiber is derived from pine cellulose.
