New Roots Active Folic Acid, 60 Tablets

New Roots Herbal Active Folic Acid gives you folate as L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate, the form the body can use directly without first converting it. That matters for the many people whose enzyme for converting regular folic acid works less efficiently. Each tablet pairs 1 mg of active folate with vitamin B12 as methylcobalamin and vitamin B6 as pyridoxal-5'-phosphate, both in their bioactive forms.

Folate helps with tissue growth and renewal and helps the body metabolize carbohydrates, fats and proteins. It is a common choice before conception and through pregnancy.

• 60 tablets
• Folate 1 mg, B12 2.8 mcg, B6 2 mg per tablet
• Contains no gluten, soy, wheat, corn, eggs, dairy or yeast
• No sugar, starch or artificial colour

Active folic acid (ʟ‑5‑methyltetrahydrofolate) is critican for prenatal health, embryonic nervous-system development, and protection from neural-tube deficiency.

ʟ‑5‑Methyltetrahydrofolate helps reduce the risk of neural-tube defects when taken prior to conception and during early pregnancy. It also helps with body-tissue growth and renewal; in addition, it enables the body to metabolize carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. This makes it possible for cells to easily assimilate and use nutrients for energy creation within their mitochondria (cellular power plants). Supplementing with active folic acid can also prove beneficial for many people with impaired function of the enzyme that transforms regular folic acid to this active form the body easily recognizes and exploits. Our formula includes vitamins B12 and B6 in their premium bioactive forms, methylcobalamin and pyridoxal-5′-phosphate (P5P). These vitamins serve as cofactors for metabolic activity throughout the body.

Each tablet contains:
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxal-5′‑phosphate)	2 mg
Folate (from calcium ʟ‑5‑methyltetrahydrofolate)	1 mg
Vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin)	2.8 mcg
Other ingredients: Microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, vegetable magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide, and vegetable stearic acid.
