Bioactive folic acid - capsules vitamin B9 to relieve fatigue, exhaustion and much more - 60 capsules
Concentrated bioactive folic acid alternative in the form of calcium L-methylfolate (L-5-MTHF-Ca) capsules facilitates absorption and supports body health.
Why buy
Folic acid must be converted (methylated) in the intestines and liver to the active form 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MeTHF), which is found in the blood and used by the tissues.
A very high percentage of people (60% in the US) have a genetic enzyme defect that prevents them from converting folic acid to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, so 5 MTHF may be the only effective form of folate supplementation for these people.
Other products containing folic acid can also be found here.

What exactly is folate?
Folate is a general term for a group of B vitamins that are important for various functions in the body, such as the formation of new cells and DNA. One form of folate is folic acid, which is especially important during pregnancy for proper fetal development.
Another form of folate is L-methylfolate (5-MTHF), which is a biologically active form of folate that the body can easily use. Folate is essential for the proper function of cells, the nervous system and the immune system.
So why use this bioactive liquid folic acid alternative from Metabolics?
- Folate contributes to the growth of maternal tissue during pregnancy.
- Folate contributes to normal amino acid synthesis.
- Folate contributes to the normal production of red blood.
- Folate contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism.
- Folate contributes to normal mental function.
- Folate contributes to the normal function of the immune system.
- Folate helps to reduce the rate of fatigue and exhaustion.
Folic acid
Folic acid contributes to healthy development of the nervous system, prevention of birth defects of the brain and spine, support of healthy cells and normal function of the immune system.
Pregnant women should ensure sufficient folic acid intake for proper fetal development.
The European Union approves claims for folic acid that include its benefits for healthy cells, prevention of birth defects during pregnancy, support for neurodevelopment and normal immune system function.
These claims are in line with relevant legislation and scientific knowledge.
From food, we get folic acid mainly from leafy vegetables such as spinach, lettuce, cabbage, cucumbers and tomatoes.
It is also found in legumes, potatoes, nuts, oranges, whole grains, wheat germ, soy, milk, dairy products, eggs and liver.

Calcium L-methylfolate (folic acid)
The biologically active form of folate is called methylfolate (also 5-methyltetrahydrofolate or 5-MTHF), which occurs naturally in the human body and can be easily used by the body in this form. in studies, 5-MTHF bound to the calcium salt showed higher absorption and higher maximum plasma levels compared to folic acid in its classic form. It contributes to the normal function of the immune system and is a suitable dietary supplement in pregnancy and during pregnancy planning.5-MTHF is also required for the normal production of neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine, melatonin, adrenaline and noradrenaline. It also promotes a good mood and cardiovascular system.

About the company
Founded in 1991, Metabolics is a small family-run company based in the south-west of the UK in Wiltshire, specialising in the manufacture of pure dietary supplements without binders and fillers.
Since its inception, it has focused on providing the highest quality nutritional supplements to customers around the world.
Quality and cleanliness are the key elements of work at Metabolics. Only the highest quality raw materials are used to ensure maximum customer satisfaction.
History METABOLICS
The company was founded in 1991 and has been providing its customers with the highest quality nutritional and health supplements ever since.
Metabolics specializes in pure dietary supplements without the use of binders, liquid and firming agents or fillers.
The Society was founded by Alison Astill-Smith, a fully registered and experienced osteopath who trained at The British School of Osteopathy.
Alison was unhappy with the quality of the nutritional supplements that were available for use in her practice, so she decided to set up Metabolics to offer other practitioners and individuals the highest quality nutrition.
Alison also runs informative seminars across the UK and the rest of Europe, providing GPs with a wealth of information on nutrition for health and wellbeing, contributing to their CPD classes.
How it works METABOLICS
Metabolics is completely dedicated to providing the highest level of purity and quality in all of its supplements.
At Metabolics, there is a rule that applies to their entire product line - "Quality Out, Quality In".
Most capsules contain only the active ingredients and nothing else. If the amount of active ingredient is too small to produce a usable product, we add a single filler, namely "vegetable cellulose".
Cellulose is a plant-derived fibre that the body cannot digest, but when the active ingredient in the capsule is released and absorbed; the cellulose simply passes harmlessly through the body.
The encapsulation process is carried out at our manufacturing facility in Wiltshire, which is equipped with the latest technology to ensure that products are produced to the highest standards.
Random batch testing is carried out to ensure that all products meet these very high standards, while at the same time samples are taken after cleaning the equipment to ensure that there is absolutely no possibility of contamination or impact on standards.
Standards METABOLICS
Nothing is added to the dietary supplements from Metabolics.
Only purified water, purified to 18.2 MΩ, is added to all Metabolics liquid dietary supplements. This makes it possible to create liquid dietary supplements with water that is as pure as water can be.
The company is proud to include no hidden fillers, emulsifiers, binders, lubricants or stabilizers in any Metabolics dietary supplements.
This means no magnesium stearate, stearic acid, polyvinylpyrrolidone and sodium carboxymethylcellulose. Nothing that could interfere with the active ingredients contained in any Metabolics product to make them as effective and pure as possible.
The supplements you find in some other well-known products are not there for your benefit. Some other manufacturers use them to make their products easier to manufacture or to make them more aesthetically appealing. It's important to note that some of these additives are machine lubricants, added to make machines run smoother and faster and reduce production costs.
All Metabolics machines are semi-automatic, meaning they operate without added lubricants and are housed in a state-of-the-art cleanroom facility.
Production and quality in clean rooms
At Metabolics, all of their products are manufactured in the UK in their state-of-the-art clean room manufacturing facility.
As far as is known, there is no other UK manufacturer of dietary supplements with the same standard of manufacturing facilities.
If you would like to see a short video of their production facility, you can here: The video highlights how the company goes to great lengths to ensure the quality of all their products, and also shows a behind the scenes look at the production of dietary supplements from formulation to encapsulation.
Accreditation
They are also accredited to ISO:9001 and ISO:14001 standards to help customers gain confidence not only in Metabolics as a company, but also in our entire range of dietary supplements.
Metabolics products are manufactured under the strict rules of GMP & HACCP certification, a rigorous set of requirements that ensure dietary supplements are consistently produced and controlled to a high standard.
This demonstrates the manufacturer's ability to produce dietary supplements that meet the industry's high standards of quality and safety.
In addition, the company uses the ISO 9001:2015 quality management system to consistently provide products and services that meet customer and regulatory requirements.
They also have the ISO 14001:2015 standard, which allows us to measure and improve our environmental performance.
