Folate (metafolin 1000mcg) 1000mcg - 60 Tablets
- Folic Acid must first be converted to its active form by a series of biochemical steps before it is able to be used by the body. Metafolin® (L-methylfolate) requires no conversion because it is bioidentical to the bio-active form. In other words, it is ‘body-ready’. This can be useful for individuals whose bodies have difficulty converting folic acid to its active form. The active folate in this formulation promotes heart health. It also supports a healthy nervous system and the formation of healthy red blood cells.
Folacin is absolutely vital for fetal development and growth especially during the early stages of pregnancy. Neural tube defects can be caused by folacin deficiency. Sadly this means that chances of miscarriages and spina bifida are increased. Perinatal depression is common and cannot be properly addressed due to safety concerns for the baby. Folacin (along with vitamin B's) is a natural alternative in such cases as it could help with neurological issues. For adults, folacin is needed for good heart health as it motivates balanced levels of cholesterol and reduces chances of stroke. Neurological benefits can also be highlighted again.
