Jarrow Formulas Methyl Folate, 1000mcg 100 Veggie Capsules

Jarrow Formulas Methyl Folate 1,000 mcg 100 Veggie Capsules

Jarrow Formulas Methyl Folate 1,000 mcg is a folate dietary supplement providing 1,000 mcg of methyl folate in a convenient veggie-capsule format. Methyl folate is a biologically active form of folate that the body can use in DNA synthesis, cell division, red blood cell formation, and homocysteine metabolism.

This formula is designed for adults seeking targeted folate supplementation.

What Is Methyl Folate?

Methyl folate is a bioactive form of vitamin B9, commonly referred to as 5-MTHF (5-methyltetrahydrofolate).

Unlike folic acid, which must undergo several metabolic steps before becoming an active folate form, 5-MTHF is already a metabolically active form that participates directly in folate-dependent pathways.

Folate is important for:

• 🧬 DNA and RNA synthesis

• 🔄 Normal cell division

• 🩸 Red blood cell formation

• 🧠 Normal nervous-system function

• 🧪 Homocysteine metabolism

• 🤰 Maternal tissue growth during pregnancy

Supplement Facts

• Folate: 680 mcg DFE — 170% DV

• L-Methylfolate: 400 mcg as (6S)-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate Glucosamine Salt

• Daily Value: 170%

Medicinal / Other Ingredients

Microcrystalline cellulose, capsule (hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, water), magnesium stearate (vegetable source).

How It Works

Methyl folate participates in one-carbon metabolism, a group of biochemical reactions involved in DNA synthesis, amino-acid metabolism, and methylation.

5-MTHF also contributes to the conversion of homocysteine to methionine, helping maintain normal homocysteine metabolism.

Folate is required for normal cell division and contributes to normal red blood cell formation.
