Accepted Answer

JudNic, We appreciate your question. Methyl Multi without Iron only uses the activated form of folic acid, "folate".  This formulation features activated vitamin cofactors and folate as Quatrefolic® (5-MTHF) for optimal utilization. The listing has been updated to reflect this information and help avoid any further confusion. Below is more information on the type of Folate is used in this supplement: "The mechanism of action of Quatrefolic® is related to the action of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate the active part of the proprietary ingredient. 5-methyltetrahydrofolate derives from tetrahydrofolic acid, through a series of metabolic reactions. Tetrahydrofolic acid acts as a coenzyme in several vital metabolic reactions participating in the transfer as acceptors and donors of various one-carbon fragments, involved in the biosynthesis of nucleotides purines and pyrimidines and in the metabolism of several important amino acids. In concert with vitamin B12, folate coenzymes allow the conversion of the amino acid homocysteine to methionine, the lack of this conversion has been associated with various pathologies and diseases. Conversion of tetrahydrofolic acid to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate is mediated by the action of the enzyme methylentetrahydrofolate reductase. In individuals with a genetic defect of methylentetrahydrofolate reductase enzyme conversion is limited, predisposing these individuals for an increased risk for certain disease conditions. Supplementation with 5-methyltetrahydrofolate might be preferable to folic acid, being it is immediately available to react with homocysteine to avoid the possibility of hyperhomocysteineamia."
