How It Works
How It Works
Many people have impaired function of the enzyme that converts regular folic acid into the active form your body needs. This formula provides methyltetrahydrofolate — the bioactive form your cells recognize immediately. Includes methylcobalamin B12 and P5P B6 as cofactors for optimal metabolic function.
Who It's For
Women planning pregnancy or in early pregnancy who need reliable neural tube support. Adults with genetic variations affecting folic acid metabolism. Anyone wanting to support healthy homocysteine levels and cellular energy production.
Who It's Not For
Not suitable if you're taking other medications without spacing doses appropriately. Consult your healthcare practitioner if pregnant or breastfeeding.
About This Product
What It Does
Active folic acid that works even when your genetics don't cooperate with regular folic acid supplements. This methylfolate form bypasses the enzyme conversion step that fails in many people, ensuring your body gets the folate it actually needs for cellular energy and healthy development.
Why It Works
- BIOACTIVE FORM: Methyltetrahydrofolate is already in the active form your cells use — no conversion required.
- GENETIC ADVANTAGE: Works regardless of MTHFR gene variations that impair folic acid metabolism in up to 40% of people.
- COFACTOR SUPPORT: Includes methylcobalamin B12 and P5P B6 in their most bioavailable forms for complete metabolic support.
What's Inside
Each vegetable capsule contains 1 mg folate as calcium L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate, plus methylcobalamin B12 and pyridoxal-5'-phosphate B6. Made in Canada with no artificial additives.
Why we carry it: New Roots addresses the real problem — genetic variations that prevent proper folic acid utilization in nearly half the population.
