Metagenics FolaPro™
The Body's Preferred Form of Folate
60 Tablets

FolaPro features a metabolically active, natural form of folate called L-5-methyl tetrahydrofolate (L-5-MTHF). Unlike folic acid, L-5-MTHF requires no extra steps to be absorbed and utilized by the body. This is important, because the ability to metabolize folic acid is impacted in up to 40% of the population due to genetic variability. It is suggested that these individuals would benefit from supplementation with the active metabolite, L-5-MTHF, over other forms of folate. Among its many benefits, L-5-MTHF promotes healthy homocysteine levels, is the only folate metabolite that crosses the blood-brain barrier, and is intimately linked to nucleotide synthesis. FolaPro features the natural L-isomer form of 5-MTHF, exclusive to Metagenics, which is preferred over the unnatural D-isomer or mixed DL-isomer forms because it is the only isomeric form used by the body.

Each Tablet Provides:
Folate (as L-5-methyl tetrahydrofolate†)

800 mcg

Recommendations: 1 tablet daily
