5-MTHF: highly absorbable and Natural Folic Acid
Biological form of folate
Unlike almost all other folic acid supplements on the market, only the most biologically active form has been used, namely 5-MTHF.
A breakthrough in folate supplementation
5-MTHF, the natural form of folic acid, doesn't have to be activated by the liver as is the case with non-natural folic acid and is therefore much more absorbable.
An excellent source of folate for pregnant women
Experts agree that pregnant women or women trying to conceive will benefit from supplementing folic acid. Folic acid occurs naturally in all kinds of foods, especially in vegetables and whole grain products. One normally gets enough folic acid by having a varied diet. But in case of early pregnancy there's an extra need of folic acid. 5-MTHF is an extremely pure product that perfectly meets this need.
