Folate, also known as vitamin B9, is important to your overall health for a number of reasons. It plays a crucial role in the healthy synthesis and repair of your DNA, and promotes healthy tissue and cell growth. 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.

Higher amounts of folate can be found in foods like beans and lentils, raw spinach, cooked asparagus, avocado, green leafy vegetables and even in tropical fruits like mango. 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 through a combination of dietary sources and supplements such as Pure Encapsulations' Folate 400. Folate 400 provides Metafolin L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (L-5MTHF), the naturally occurring, universally metabolized form of folate. Only 50% of folate obtained through food is absorbed in the body. Pure Encapsulations Folate 400 contains folate as Metafolin L-5-MTHF. Metafolin is a unique form of 5-methyl-tetrahydrofolate that is easier for your body to absorb and utilize than other types. Unlike naturally occurring folate Metafolin doesn't have to undergo enzymatic activation steps that may delay its effectiveness.
