METHYL B -12 1000 MCG & METHYL FOLATE 400 MCG - 100 Chewing Tablets

Jarrow Formulas® Methyl-B12, Methylfolate plus Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate (P5P) Tablets combine the active forms of these vitamins to support DNA, neurotransmitter synthesis, and amino acid metabolism. Methyl B-12 is the highest form of vitamin B12 that is absorbed and retained much better than other forms of B12 (e.g., cyanocobalamin). 5-MTHF as Quatrefolic® is the most biologically active form of folic acid. P-5-P combines the most bioavailable and biologically active forms of vitamin B6.

Methylcobalamin (Methyl B12) is an easily absorbed and easily digestible form of vitamin B12 that helps maintain brain health, vitality, restful sleep and good mood. It also plays a critical role in the detoxification of homocysteine ​​(linked to arterial damage and other health problems) and other oxidants associated with the aging process. Methyl B12 plays an important role in the balance of brain chemicals and promotes the synthesis of neurotransmitters to improve communication between nerve cells. Finally, methyl B12 plays a strategic role in the production of oxygen in blood cells.

Methyl Folic Acid ((6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate acid or (6S)-5-MTHF) is the most biologically active form of folic acid available on the market today.

The patented formula Quatrefolic® represents the 4th generation in the development of folate delivery. In most people, due to some inherited errors in metabolism or due to various forms of physiological stress, the transformation of folic acid into the active form of folate does not occur properly or is not adequate. A better approach is to take bioactive folate directly 5-MTHFThere is evidence that 5-MTHF dramatically increases red blood cell folate concentration, an indicator of folate status, compared to folic acid supplements. This bioactive folate has up to seven times greater bioavailability than folic acid. This greater bioavailability is especially important in people who have genetic enzyme deficiencies, as it does not need to be converted to become metabolically active.

Individuals with elevated homocysteine ​​levels are at greater risk of cognitive decline. Unlike folic acid, 5-MTHF as Quatrefolic® can cross the blood-brain barrier, which is especially important for people with cognitive difficulties, to enhance the synthesis of acetylcholine in the brain - a neurotransmitter associated with memory. Studies show that the effectiveness of 5-MTHF can be further increased by taking supplements with methylcobalamin (the active form of vitamin B12), vitamin B6 and riboflavin.

Pyridoxal 5-phosphate (P-5-p) is in the form of a coenzyme of vitamin B6 and is necessary for the metabolism of proteins and amino acids. Vitamin B6 is a cofactor in numerous enzyme systems in the body. P-5-P assists in the conversion of homocysteine ​​to methionine.
