This supplement supports cardiovascular health by maintaining normal homocysteine levels and promotes cognitive wellness. Crafted with non-GMO, gluten-free, and vegetarian ingredients, it’s a science-driven choice for professionals seeking optimized brain and heart support. ## Description Since not everyone has enough of the necessary enzymatic activity necessary to convert folic acid to 5-MTHF (the active form of folate), this highly potent dose of 5-MTHF makes it easier for you to get all the health benefits of the B vitamin folate. Indeed, you get 8500 mcg of dietary folate equivalents in every tablet. High Potency Optimized Folate helps maintain already normal levels of homocysteine, an important marker of heart health, and is also good for your brain health—specifically, maintaining healthy cognition. This heart and brain health supplement is also gluten-free, non-GMO and vegetarian. ## Features - High potency – This powerful folate supplement contains 8500 mcg of 5-MTHF folate, the bioactive form of folic acid. Choosing 5-MTHF instead of regular folic acid is a good option because not everyone can convert folate to 5-MTHF. - Cardiovascular support – Folate is a heart-healthy B vitamin. Why? Folate helps maintain normal levels of homocysteine, a metabolic byproduct. Keeping homocysteine levels within normal range is an important biomarker for cardiovascular health. - Cognitive health – Folate is also a “big brain” vitamin: it helps maintain cognitive health. Again, this has to do with keeping homocysteine levels within normal range, as homocysteine has also been associated with normal cognitive decline. - Science matters – Expert formulators design our supplement formulas, and a Certificate of Analysis is available for every Life Extension product. - Quality ingredients – The majority of our products are non-GMO, gluten-free and manufactured in the USA with internationally sourced ingredients. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00V756QFK | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Allergen Information | Gluten Free | | Best Sellers Rank | #24,073 in Health & Household ( See Top 100 in Health & Household ) #30 in Vitamin B9 (Folic Acid) Supplements | | Brand | Life Extension | | Brand Name | Life Extension | | Color | Off White | | Container Type | Bottle | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 888 Reviews | | Diet Type | Vegetarian | | Dosage Form | Tablet | | Flavor | Unflavored | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00737870191339 | | Item Dimensions | 2.09 x 2.09 x 3.73 inches | | Item Form | Tablet | | Item Highlight | L-Methylfolate & Folic Acid for Heart & Brain Support, Healthy Homocysteine Levels, Gluten-Free, Non-GMO & Vegetarian | | Item Nype Name | L-Methylfolate Supplement | | Item Weight | 1.12 ounces | | Manufacturer | Life Extension | | Manufacturer Part Number | 01913 | | Material Type Free | Gluten Free | | Model Name | Life Extension High Potency Optimized Folate | | Model Number | 01913 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Primary Supplement Type | Folate [as (6S)-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate, calcium salt] | | Product Benefits | Heart Health Supplements, Brain Health Supplements | | Special Ingredients | Folate [as (6S)-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate, calcium salt] | | Specific Uses For Product | Heart Health Supplements, Brain Health Supplements | | UPC | 737870191339 | | Unit Count | 30 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Life Extension - **Diet Type:** Vegetarian - **Flavor:** Unflavored - **Item Form:** Tablet - **Primary Supplement Type:** Folate [as (6S)-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate, calcium salt] ## Images ![High Potency Optimized Folate, 8500 mcg DFE, 30 Tablets - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71UZAQa1b8L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Are the raw materials for this supplement from China?** A: Raw Material for this product is sourced from Italy, however product is manufactured in the US.
