Product Description: Metabolic Active Folic AcidExcellent BioavailabilityQuatrefolic®Non-GMOSupplementSuitable for Vegetarians and VegansFolic acid taken through diet or supplements is in the active form 5-methyltetrahydrofolate for use by the body. It must be converted to (5-MTHF). This process involves several biochemical steps and, depending on the situation, may not be efficient enough to meet the body's needs. Additionally, unlike folic acid, 5-MTHF can cross the blood-brain barrier. This product uses a patented form of 5-MTHF with excellent bioavailability.
Directions for use: Take one capsule daily with a meal or as directed by your doctor.
Ingredients: Cellulose powder, cellulose (capsule) and stearic acid (vegetable raw material). This product is not manufactured with ingredients such as wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, shellfish or tree nuts. Produced in a Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) facility that also processes other raw materials containing these allergens.
