Folic acid (or folate) is vitamin B9, a water-soluble vitamin that plays a key role in the biosynthesis of DNA and RNA, the formation of red blood cells, protein metabolism, and optimal gene expression. Since the body does not produce folic acid, but needs it, it obtains it from food or supplements. Diet, lifestyle, certain medications, and certain illnesses can deplete the body's folic acid stores. BioFolate® contains L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (L-5-MTHF), the active form of folic acid used by the body.
Consuming folate in the L-5-MTHF form ensures that even those with an MTHFR gene mutation can absorb it and avoid deficiency.
AOR's BioFolate® provides a high dose of active folate combined with a minimal amount of active vitamin B12, since folate supplementation can mask a vitamin B12 deficiency. In accordance with our quality standards and philosophy, all AOR 5-MTHF products contain the purest form of L-5-MTHF on the market, guaranteed to be 99% pure.
