Magnafolate® ((L-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate calcium) is a biologically active form of folic acid, regarded as the most purest folate source on the planet!
Well, what’s the differences between Magnafolate® and folic acid?
Firstly, over 30% people can’t absorb the folic acid because they have the MTHFR gene defect. While Magnafolate® is much more friendly and suitable for all people, it can be absorbed directly.
Secondly, Magnafolate® is the main folate form in blood of the human body. So, it wouldn’t produce allergic reactions and is safer. While using folic acid would lead to the unmetabolized folic acid which burden the liver and has many potential risks.
BTW, Magnafolate® has well approved FDA NDI (NDI 920), self-affirmed GRAS, HALAL, KOSHER, etc.
Now, Magnafolate® is commonly used in preconception and pregnancy care formulas. Also, 15mg high dosage Magnafolate® can be used for mood health formulations in US.
