What does 5-MTHF do for the body?

5-MTHF is a metabolically active form of folate. This means that the human body knows how to use folate in this form. It’s more readily available, and it doesn’t need to be broken down by the body before it can be used. 
Using highly bioavailable folate means that less folate will ultimately need to be consumed in order for adequate blood folate levels to be achieved. 
What does 5-MTHF do for the body
There is a close relationship between nutritional status and immune function, And there have been a lot of literature on this study in recent years. When the body has an immune response, antigens sensitize lymphocytes and increase DNA synthesis. Folate is an essential nutrient in DNA synthesis. This suggests that folate may play a role in the body's immune response. Folate deficiency can cause reduced host resistance and impaired lymphocyte function in humans and laboratory animals. Animals deficient in folate are more susceptible to bacteria, parasites and viruses

Therefore, for critically ill patients, regular testing of their serum folate levels, regular administration of folate can help improve immunity, beneficial to the physical recovery.
