The biologically active, metabolically ready form of folate that bypasses the conversion steps required by regular folic acid — essential for those with MTHFR gene variants. Crosses the blood-brain barrier to support neurological health. Vegan, kosher, halal, non-GMO. GMP quality assured. 90 tablets.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy you need it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost people know folate (Vitamin B9) is important — but far fewer know that the form of folate in most supplements and fortified foods (folic acid) is actually a synthetic version that your body has to convert before it can use it. And here’s the catch: a large portion of the population carries a common genetic variation called MTHFR that makes this conversion difficult or even impossible. If you’re one of them, taking regular folic acid may not be giving you the folate your body actually needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMethylfolate — specifically (6S)-5-MTHF — is the form your body is trying to make from folic acid. It’s already converted, already active, and ready to go to work the moment you take it. No conversion needed. Now Foods uses Quatrefolic®, a patented form of methylfolate with proven superior absorption compared to standard folic acid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond the MTHFR angle, methylfolate matters for everyone: it’s essential for DNA synthesis, healthy cell division, neurotransmitter production, and keeping homocysteine levels in check. And unlike folic acid, it can cross the blood-brain barrier — making it directly available to support brain health and neurological function in a way that regular folate simply can’t.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 1,000 mcg (1,700 mcg DFE, 425% DV) per tablet, this is a meaningful therapeutic dose in a clean, one-tablet-daily format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFolate 1,700 mcg DFE (1,000 mcg (6S)-5-MTHF) per tablet — 425% DV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuatrefolic® — patented (6S)-5-MTHF glucosamine salt, superior bioavailability to folic acid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBiologically active, metabolically ready form — no conversion required by the body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for those with MTHFR gene variants who cannot efficiently convert folic acid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrosses the blood-brain barrier — supports neurological health and neurotransmitter synthesis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports normal cell division and DNA synthesis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports healthy homocysteine metabolism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports cardiovascular health\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports prenatal health — folate is critical during early pregnancy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCo-enzyme B vitamin — works directly in the body's metabolic pathways\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVegan, kosher, halal, non-GMO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGMP quality assured — family owned by Now Foods since 1968\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree from wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, and sesame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e90 tablets — 90-day supply at 1 tablet daily\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eImportant cautions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eB12 masking:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-dose folate may mask Vitamin B-12 deficiency.
