NOW® Methyl Folate 1,000 mcg (Quatrefolic®) – The Bioactive Form of Vitamin B-9
Upgrade your daily B-vitamin routine with NOW® Methyl Folate 1,000 mcg. Standard folic acid must pass through multiple enzymatic conversion steps in the liver and digestive tract before your body can use it. Many individuals carry variations in the MTHFR gene that significantly slow down or impair this conversion.
NOW® solves this by utilizing Quatrefolic®—an advanced, fourth-generation active form of folate ((6S)-5-MTHF) that bypasses conversion entirely. It enters circulation ready for cellular use, crossing the blood-brain barrier to optimize brain chemistry, energy, and heart function.
Bypasses MTHFR Bottlenecks: Instantly bioavailable without requiring metabolic activation—ideal for those who cannot efficiently convert synthetic folic acid.
Brain, Memory & Mood Balance: Supplies the raw cofactor needed to synthesize key neurotransmitters, including dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine.
Healthy Homocysteine Metabolism: Essential partner in the methylation pathway, helping break down homocysteine to maintain flexible, healthy blood vessels and heart health.
Cell Division & DNA Production: Fundamental nutrient for genetic repair, normal cellular turnover, and healthy red blood cell production.
Clinically Studied Quatrefolic®: Features patented glucosamine-salt methylfolate engineered for maximum water solubility and intestinal absorption.
Take 1 tablet daily with a meal.
Store in a cool, dry place after opening
Caution: For adults only. The elderly and individuals with conditions that may impair vitamin B-12 absorption should frequently check vitamin B-12 status when taking this product as high-dose folic acid may mask vitamin B-12 deficiency. Consult physician if pregnant/nursing, taking medication (especially phenobarbital, phenytoin, primidone, and methotrexate), or have a medical condition (especially any condition involving nutrient malabsorption). Keep out of reach of children.
