I purchased this product as a supplement for folate uptake deficiency related to MTHFR polymorphism. This is an excellent product with great potency. It provides incredible energy levels, focus, and appetite suppression for when I am doing intermittent fasting. I take it in combination with Vitamin B12 drops (adenosylcobalamin, hydroxocobalamin, and methylcobalamin combination). When I have this supplement, I wonder how I ever functioned with out it! Will be buying repeatedly for the foreseeable future.
Dietary Supplement L-Methylfolate is the activated form of folate used by the body for many biochemical reactions. Folic acid is the most common form of folate in supplements and fortified foods. However, it requires the enzyme methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) to be converted to L-Methylfolate. We offer supplementary active L-Methylfolate to circumvent this conversion. About half of the population have genetic variations that reduce the ability of the MTHFR enzyme to make this conversion. For this population, L-Methylfolate supplementation is far more effective in providing active folate.

The doctor recommended it to improve the homocysteine index (visible in a blood tests). After a month of use in the results of blood tests the indicator has returned to acceptable limits (it was elevated before use, outside the permissible norm). I continue to use!
I have been taking this for years. When I've taken breaks, my fatigue worsens. It's pricey but I can't seem to manage without it. Other people may not need this at all if they can process Vitamin B correctly. Others of us benefit greatly. Dosage needs vary between people and over time, I believe. My needs have decreased over time.
Super product, I will definitely order it again, I recommend it to everyone, the packaging is of high quality, and the ingredients are excellent. Fast delivery, everything arrived in good condition and was well packaged !!!
quality wise it is good. capsule size is cute and package is convenient. I have persistent anemia so i feel like i needed this but the ingredient of 10mg is i think too much for me as a small sized female, some users says 5mg below is a good start. I can feel the effect esp if my hgb goes 8-9 but sometime i get really bloated and get a headache if I take more the next few days sonI stop and feel better. maybe bec i also have metabolism issue . no taste. I hope this company makes more options like the lower dosage.
Several months ago I increased my methyl folate intake from 5 to 10mg and wanted to take fewer pills. Saw this option and after being on Thorne for years I decided to try this one to see if it had a similar impact. Methyl folate is a godsend, and the 10mg dose is my sweet spot. This brand is great and I’m grateful to only have to take one pill.
It’s not easy to find good quality true L-Methylfolate for affordable price. Metabolic Maintenance offers it in 10 mg dose with 90 Capsules in the bottle. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 though because the company doesn’t specify enough what kind of methylfolate it is exactly. The capsules are small. The bottle is cute and made of glass which I like.
Have been using a few months and I think it's making a difference.
Good size and quality and ingredients and package and effects
This product is often recommended by other parents of autistic children who struggle with expressive language. I haven't noticed any ill effects so far. It has to be taken together with vitamin B complex to see the most benefits. The capsules are small, so they are easy to swallow.
