5-MTHF 1 MG
El 5-MTHF es una forma activa de folato, lista para los tejidos. Es una vitamina B esencial que apoya la metilación. Muchas personas no obtienen suficiente 5-MTHF porque tienen disfunción intestinal o hepática o debido a su composición genética.
Muchas personas no obtienen suficiente 5-MTHF (L-5-metiltetrahidrofolato), la forma activa del ácido fólico, porque tienen disfunción intestinal o hepática, o porque se encuentran entre los tres de cada cinco estadounidenses cuya composición genética dificulta la conversión del ácido fólico en 5-MTHF activo. La deficiencia de ácido fólico se ha relacionado con bebés con bajo peso al nacer y defectos del tubo neural, razón por la cual los Centros para el Control de Enfermedades recomiendan la suplementación con ácido fólico para todas las mujeres en edad fértil. Dado que el 5-MTHF también contribuye a la producción de serotonina, melatonina, dopamina, epinefrina y norepinefrina, la suplementación apoya un estado de ánimo saludable.
Nota: Se recomienda 1 mg de 5-MTHF para el apoyo fetal durante el embarazo; la opción de 15 mg se recomienda solo cuando lo indique un profesional de la salud.
Es importante que una mujer en edad fértil obtenga suficiente ácido fólico, no solo aquellas mujeres que planean quedar embarazadas.* Debido a que la mitad de los embarazos no son planificados, cualquier mujer que pueda quedar embarazada debe obtener suficiente ácido fólico todos los días. La ingesta de ácido fólico es especialmente importante antes de la concepción y durante el embarazo temprano, ya que su mayor necesidad es durante el primer trimestre, cuando una mujer quizás ni siquiera sepa que está embarazada. La suplementación con la forma activa de ácido fólico, 5-MTHF (L-5 metiltetrahidrofolato), siempre es preferible.
Actuando con la vitamina B12, el 5-MTHF funciona como donante de grupos metilo, facilitando así la conversión del aminoácido homocisteína en metionina. Un nivel elevado de homocisteína es un factor de riesgo para una serie de condiciones de salud indeseables. La donación de grupos metilo es vital para muchos procesos de conversión bioquímica, incluida la síntesis de serotonina, melatonina y ADN.
Tomar 1 cápsula de una a tres veces al día o según lo recomendado por un profesional de la salud.

My doc wants me to take this and methyl B12 because my homocysteine is too high and I have the MTHFR gene mutation. I haven’t taken it long enough to see any difference in homocysteine levels, but I do notice a couple positive things: 1. My hair has stopped falling out by the hands full, 2. The myriad of seborrheic keratosis “barnacles” that I have all over have started to disappear.
Unfortunately, this stuff is like pure speed to my system. I have to take it very early in the morning and now have to take melatonin to sleep. Still experimenting with how much and what kind. Could be worse I guess !

Great product and price
Great website, excellent products, fast shipping, competitive price points, great customer service and communication and I absolutely love the marine collagen I received. One of the best I’ve ever taken. I will definitely be ordering from you again! Thank you!

Great decaf medium roast coffee. Wonderful
Everyone is knowledgeable and patient. Also, they have a variety of options and products.
Beef Gelatin Unflavored
Very effective when I combine it with slow release melatonin at night for sleep and stress. This was recommended to me by my functional medicine doctor. The allergy free type is good for people with food sensitivities.
Organic Bacopa really does help with my memory. I can tell the difference if I forget to take it!
This product works for me. Was hounded by my dr to start statins because she thought my numbers were dangerously high. I said absolutely not and added Cholesterice. Over this past year my ‘bad’ number is down 50 points and is staying down. Awesome product which really helped me.
Very glad I found Beberine to give me an assist with pre-diabetes and heart disease. Seems to be working really well.
