Along with vitamins B-2, B-6 and B-12 its required for the methylation of amino acids, converting them to new proteins, detoxifying artery-damaging homocysteine, controlling growth and reproduction of cells, and supporting the production of hemoglobin. While the liver is capable of storing excess folate for up to 9 months, this backup system is dependent upon high regular dietary intake of unprocessed foods and does not take into account biochemical individuality variations among the population. n Dietary folate is obtained almost exclusively from plants, and once absorbed much of it is converted into L-5-methyl-tetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF). It is only with the help of vitamins B-3, B-12 and C that this conversion can occur so that this active version of folate can complete the full roster of its vital responsibilities in the body. That is why PureLabs Slow-Release BioActive Folate caps contain 1 milligram (1000 micrograms) of already activated folate as L-5-MTHF, so that more consistent blood levels can be achieved and vital metabolic functions performed.Conditions which may benefit from a biologically-active folic acid supplementation include: High homocysteine Cervical dysplasia Hormone replacement therapy Oral contraceptives Cognitive decline Restless leg syndrome Pregnancy Depression Diet of processed foods\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eINGREDIENTS   \u003c\/b\u003ePer Capsule:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamin B9 (Calcium L-5-MTHF) 1mg\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PURE LAB VITAMINS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40882145722529,"sku":"47801601","price":19.29,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0368\/2267\/9692\/files\/PLV-Bioactive-Folic-acid-60s-bottle-FRT.jpg?v=1739731857","url":"https:\/\/yorkdale-nutrition-house.myshopify.com\/products\/47801601","provider":"Nutrition House Yorkdale ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
