What is L-Methylfolate calcium?

L-Methylfolate calcium is a form of folate, or vitamin B9. Unlike other forms of this vitamin, L-Methylfolate calcium is methylated. This means it has undergone a chemical reaction that makes it bioavailable. Bioavailability refers to how easy it is for the body to absorb and use a nutrient.

When a person gets folate from food, the body has to convert it into l-methylfolate to use it inside cells. However, when individuals take l-methylfolate in a supplement, this process is unnecessary. This makes l-methylfolate more bioavailable than other types of vitamin B9, such as folate or folic acid.
