Metabolic Maintenance L-Metilfolato 15 mg - 60 Cápsulas

What is L-Methylfolate and why is it important?

Discover Metabolic Maintenance L-Methylfolate — L-Methylfolate, also known as 5-MTHF, is the active, bioavailable form of folic acid (vitamin B9). Unlike synthetic folic acid, which requires several enzymatic conversions to be used by the body, L-Methylfolate is ready to act directly in key biological processes such as methylation, neurotransmitter synthesis, and blood cell formation. For individuals with genetic variants in the MTHFR gene (up to 40% of the population), this active form can be especially useful, as its metabolism does not depend on this enzyme.

Benefits of L-Methylfolate according to the EFSA

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recognizes that folate (including L-Methylfolate) contributes to several important physiological functions. According to authorized health claims, L-Methylfolate can contribute to:

• Maternal tissue growth during pregnancy.
• Normal blood cell formation.
• Normal homocysteine metabolism.
• Normal psychological function.
• Normal immune system function.

In addition, this active form can help maintain a healthy emotional balance by supporting the natural production of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine, key neurotransmitters for mood and concentration.

Can I take this product if I am pregnant?

The 15 mg dose is well above the standard prenatal recommendation. Pregnant women or women of childbearing age should consult their doctor before use.

How should I store this supplement?

Store in a cool, dry place, protected from light and out of reach of young children.
