L-Methylfolate for Infertility

Folic acid is a water-soluble B vitamin that the human body cannot synthesize itself but needs to ingest through food. It is an essential micronutrient and an antioxidant. The folic acid the body takes in needs to be converted to 5-METHYLtetrahydrofolic acid for it to be effective. When the Hcy level is high in the body, if folic acid intake is reduced or insufficient, the body does not have enough 5-methyl-tetrafhydrofolic acid to resist oxidative stress caused by high Hcy, which can lead to DNA damage of sperm and affect fertility.
