Bio Methyl Folate Complex

$ 68.95

A folate supplement combined with Vitamin B-12 and Vitamin B-6 can offer significant neurologic and physical support. Folate is involved in neurotransmitter synthesis and critical enzymatic reactions throughout the body. It can benefit cardiovascular health, nervous system function, and cell homeostasis. Additionally, folate is essential for healthy fetal neural development and synthesis of DNA and RNA. 

Methylcobalamin (Vitamin B-12) is a member of the B-Complex family of water-soluble vitamins. It has numerous functions in the body including stimulating red blood cell production and aiding in the development of healthy myelin, which benefits the nervous system. Methylcobalamin is also crucial for DNA and RNA synthesis. 

Folic Acid and B-12 are vital for remethylating homocysteine back to methionine, an amino acid that helps with energy homeostasis, liver function, and collagen production. Methylcobalamin is necessary for the enzyme methionine synthase, which catalyzes the methylation of homocysteine to methionine. 

Vitamin B-6 is a water-soluble vitamin critical for cognition and immune function. Pyridoxal 5’-phosphate is the active form of pyridoxine, and the form found in NUTRAscriptives Bio Methyl Folate Complex. It is thought to provide additional maintenance of homocysteine levels and help the body metabolize carbohydrates, protein, and fat.  *
