5-MTHF 1 mg - 60 servings
This bioavailable form of folate supports methylation—a critical biochemical process that fuels energy production, brain function, and cellular detoxification in everyone, but especially those with MTHFR gene variations. If you're serious about optimizing how your body processes nutrients and manages stress, 5-MTHF fills a gap that standard folate can't.
Folate is a key component in the body’s methylation cycle, a series of biochemical reactions that play a beneficial role in multiple body systems. Heart and brain health, cellular energy production, fat metabolism, liver detoxification, and bone health all rely on a healthy methylation cycle.
Approximately 60 percent of U.S. adults have a genetic variation that makes it difficult for their methylation cycle to function optimally. For these individuals, methylated vitamins, like Thorne’s 5-MTHF, provide essential nutritional support.*

INTERACTIONS
5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) supplementation is not recommended concurrent with methotrexate cancer therapy, as it can interfere with methotrexate's anti-neoplastic activity; however, this folate source has not been shown to interfere with the anti-inflammatory activity of methotrexate. An individual taking methotrexate for psoriasis or rheumatoid arthritis can safely take a supplement containing folate.
