Levomefolate Calcium, also known as L-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate calcium salt, is the biologically active form of folate and the most efficient form for the human body to utilize. Unlike synthetic folic acid, it does not require enzymatic conversion via MTHFR before entering the folate cycle, making it especially beneficial for individuals with MTHFR gene mutations.
Key benefits include:
Direct bioavailability – readily absorbed and utilized without metabolic conversion
Supports prenatal health – critical for fetal neural tube development
Regulates homocysteine – promotes cardiovascular health
Neuroprotective effects – supports mood, memory, and cognitive function
High purity ≥98.0% verified by HPLC
Non-GMO, allergen-free, solvent-free manufacturing process
Produced under GMP, ISO, HACCP certifications
Excellent stability and solubility in formulation processes
Consistent batch quality for nutraceutical and pharmaceutical applications
