5-MTHF 5 mg
Support heart health, fetal development, nervous system, and mood with 5-MTHF5-
MTHF is a bioactive, methylated form of folate, an essential B vitamin that supports heart, brain, blood, and bone health and is suitable for individuals with MTFHR gene mutations.
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.
Benefits of Thorne’s 5-MTHF:
- Nutritional support for individuals who have an MTHFR gene mutation
- Supports production of key neurotransmitters – serotonin, melatonin, dopamine, and epinephrine – natural brain chemicals that play an important role in regulating brain function and mood
- Promotes cardiovascular, brain, and bone health by maintaining a healthy methylation cycle and a normal homocysteine level
- Supports healthy fetal brain and spinal cord development
- Promotes blood and nerve cell health
Features of 5-MTHF:
- Suitable for individuals who have an MTHFR gene mutation
- Active, methylated folate (5-MTHF) means your body gets the highest benefit with the least additional work
- 1 mg 5-MTHF is recommended for support of fetal development during pregnancy
- Easy-to-take, small capsules
ALLERGY WARNING:
This product is contraindicated in an individual with a history of hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients.
PREGNANCY WARNING:

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.
How to Use:
Take 1 capsule one to two times daily or as recommended by your health professional.

Samento, Immune/Microbial Support
This is the second time I purchased this item believing it was the 180 capsule
version. The picture is deceiving - that size usually has 180! Yes the words said 90
but I did not read it until after receiving the shipment (picture is deceiving)!
Started taking after neck fusion surgery to relieve pressure on nerves. Recovery had stalled and function was reduced in my right arm due to nerve damage. After starting Lion's Mane at Village Green's suggestion began to regain function with continued improvement over the next months. Also reduced frequency and severity of nerve 'blasts' in my leg from unrelated issue -- believe me, I take it every day!
My favorite bitters - will purchase again!
The Village Green Apothecary is the only place I go for prescription refills and supplements. They have experts available who answer your questions and take their time to help you find exactly what you need to support your overall wellbeing. Highly highly recommend checking them out.
It does what it is supposed to.
Can't say that about other products I have tried.
I've bought a lot of supplements from this store for probably decades. While recommended by my doctor originally, I continue to use them. While they are very busy, they are pleasant and very helpful. For someone who had lots of allergies to different ingredients, they had products I could tolerate. I used to shop only in person but now that I don't frequent their area, I use their mail order. Love them.
Digestive Enzymes Ultra with Betaine HCl
Thyroid Px is helping my thyroid be healthy. After a 3-day fast, I no longer needed my prescription thyroid medicine. But I do need the support from Thyroid px
I started taking gaba a couple years ago to help with anxiety and feeling like I couldn’t focus. I don’t know what I would do without it.
Hyland’s calm is a great natural product that really helps to take the edge off of your anxiety. Villagegreen apothecary has a great price on it and the shipped it fast.
Village Green Apothecary has been amazing as my compound pharmacy. I have pain cream, and two Rx that require compounding and Ben Y. has my back every time! I can email him or call, and he is right there every time. He calls to ensure clarity of my needs and is always cheerful and happy to be of service. I get small-town, attentive service in a city location - can't beat that! Thank you, Village Green, and Ben, for making complex medication needs easy and accessible!
Excellent products and very knowledgeable staff at Village green apothecary.
Soothing and pleasant taste
Online customers should consider making the pilgrimage to the apothecary in-person because staff knowledge over there is priceless.
