Product Information
What is L-5-MTHF?
L-5-MTHF is the biologically active, methylated form of folate (vitamin B9) and is directly utilized by the body. These capsules from Designs for Health provide folate as the patented Quatrefolic® [6S]-5-methyltetrahydrofolate. Unlike synthetic folic acid, L-5-MTHF does not need to be converted first, which makes this form suitable for people who have difficulty converting folic acid. Folate in this active form also occurs naturally in food and in the body. Those looking for a highly absorbable source of folate can use this supplement in a daily dose of just one capsule.
Each capsule provides 1 mg of L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (1,700 mcg DFE), delivered as Quatrefolic®. This form is known for its high bioavailability, good solubility, and long-term stability. The formula contains no synthetic folic acid and is non-GMO.
