What Is Optimised Folate?

Maintaining normal levels of homocysteine, a metabolic byproduct, is associated with both cardiovascular and cognitive health. The B vitamin folate helps maintain already healthy homocysteine levels. The RDA for folate for adults is 400 mcg a day. Our formula provides 1,700 mcg of folate in the form of L-Methylfolate.

Help maintain already healthy levels of the health biomarker homocysteine with 1,700 mcg of folate a day.

Folate, homocysteine & cardiovascular health

Folate helps maintain healthy homocysteine levels already within the normal range. By helping to inhibit excess homocysteine, folate supports healthy levels of this important cardiovascular health biomarker.1

5-MTHF, homocysteine & cognitive health

Since people with elevated homocysteine levels have a greater risk of cognitive decline, getting enough folate is especially crucial for ageing individuals attempting to maintain cognitive health.2,3
