- **Product Name: Doctor’s Best Fully Active Folate** Revised Description: Doctor’s Best Fully Active Folate provides L-5MTHF, derived from Quatrefolic®, a patented, activated form of folate. This essential nutrient supports cardiovascular health, cellular integrity, and nerve function in a gentle and supportive manner. Fully Active Folate plays a vital role in promoting healthy mood, memory, circulation, and overall well-being. It delivers 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (MTHF), the active form of folate that is utilized by the body for critical processes such as DNA regulation and metabolic functions. As individuals navigate their health journeys, maintaining adequate folate levels can be an important aspect of overall wellness. How does it work? 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (MTHF) serves as a crucial source of methyl groups (–CH3), which are necessary for a variety of metabolic functions, including: - Supporting DNA synthesis and repair, while helping to regulate gene activity through epigenetic mechanisms. - Assisting in the recycling of homocysteine into methionine, which can contribute to overall health. - Contributing to the production of important hormones and neurotransmitters, including melatonin, serotonin, dopamine, and noradrenaline, which are vital for emotional well-being. - Enhancing the insulation of nerve cells with myelin protein, thereby optimizing their electrical conductivity.
