Introduction |
Calcium L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate, a member of the folate vitamin family (vitamin B9, folate), is a coenzyme form of folic acid. L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate calcium (5-MTHF), a naturally occurring salt-forming methyl derivative form of folic acid, 5-MTHF is also known as L-methylfolate. It is the most biologically active and functional form of folic acid and is easier to absorb than regular folic acid. |
Application |
Folic acid deficiency reduces the ability of cells to synthesize and repair DNA, and folic acid supplementation may be a more favorable way to increase folic acid to reduce homocysteine levels and support normal cell proliferation and vascular endothelial function. Cardiovascular disease, nervous system function. |
