For years the medical profession, and even the FDA, have used the terms folate and folic acid interchangeably; however, folic acid and folate are not the came.  Folic acid is the synthetic form which has been used in medicines and dietary supplements for years.‡\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile folic acid has high bioavailability, there is a fairly complex process in the body to convert folic acid to the metabolically active form – 5-methyltetrahydrofolate – which requires a number of enzymes, adequate liver and intestinal function, and the availability of vitamins B2, B3, B6, vitamin C and serine.  The lack of these compounds, or compromised liver or intestinal function, may impair the body’s ability to properly convert and absorb folic acid.‡\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementation with \u003cstrong\u003eMethyl Folate\u003c\/strong\u003e may enhance the body’s ability to absorb folate in many people.‡\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaking folate as Methyl Folate can help provide nutritional support for your brain and body.

All our cells need methyl groups to make their DNA, repair ongoing DNA damage, and regulate their utilization of DNA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e‡ These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.\u003cbr\u003e These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Progressive Labs","offers":[{"title":"60 vegetable capsules","offer_id":47344397582505,"sku":"465","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/3598\/5321\/files\/methyl-folate_1_fe50ad96-264c-4dda-9cc3-2f5869306446.jpg?v=1786599787","url":"https:\/\/oakwaynaturals.myshopify.com\/products\/methyl-folate","provider":"oakwaynaturals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
