Description
Folate‚ also known as folic acid or vitamin B9‚ is a nutrient that works to support growth and cardiovascular health. It may also support a good mood by promoting your brain's release of serotonin‚ a neurotransmitter that can support relaxation. Women may especially benefit from taking a folate supplement. It supports bone and cervical health‚ while also promoting healthy fetal development during pregnancy.
Since folate is water-soluble‚ your body can't store it for long periods of time. That means that you need to ensure daily intake though a combination of dietary sources and supplements such as Pure Encapsulations' Folate 400. Foods that contain folate include leafy green vegetables‚ nuts‚ seeds‚ organ meats‚ citrus fruits‚ and kidney beans. Unfortunately‚ the human body is only able to absorb about 50 percent of the folate you get through food.
Each vegetable capsule of this supplement provides 400 micrograms of folate. It comes in the form of Metafolin®. Metafolin® is a unique form of the vitamin‚ made to be identical to the natural form L-5-MTHF so that your body doesn't have to perform several activation processes before it becomes usable. As a result‚ it may be more bioavailable and easier for the body to absorb.
Perhaps most importantly‚ folate may help protect your cells. This includes the cells in your nervous system‚ as well as others. It helps form red blood cells‚ which transport oxygen throughout the body.
Take one or two capsules daily‚ with a meal. At the recommended dosage‚ each 90-capsule bottle of Folate 400 by Pure Encapsulations should last from one-and-a-half to three months.
Pure Encapsulations seeks to formulate and manufacture high-quality‚ hypoallergenic dietary supplements. Quality control during the formulation and manufacturing process is paramount. All Pure Encapsulations products are made with the most bioavailable ingredients possible.
