Methyl-Folat 1000 mcg (Quatrefolic®)

Optimal support for cell division, homocysteine metabolism, and more

Methyl-Folat 1000 mcg with the high-quality, patented form Quatrefolic® provides the bioactive folate variant (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate in its directly available form. This supplement is intended for individuals who value effective supply with activated folate – especially when genetic variants such as MTHFR polymorphisms can make the body's own conversion of conventional folic acid more difficult.

What is methylfolate and why is it special?

Methylfolate is the active form of folate as it is biologically utilized in the body. In contrast to synthetic folic acid, methylfolate does not need to be enzymatically converted first, but is immediately available to the organism. The Quatrefolic® form is a stabilized glucosamine salt of 5-MTHF that offers high bioavailability and stability.

Folate vs. folic acid – the crucial difference

While "folic acid" is a synthetic precursor, methylfolate is the nutritionally relevant form that the body actually uses. Studies show that up to 50% of the population have genetic variants that impair the conversion of folic acid to methylfolate. With Methyl-Folat 1000 mcg, you bypass this conversion and benefit directly from biologically active folate.
