Herbs of Gold – Activated Folate 500

Methylation. Pregnancy support. Heart & brain health.

Herbs of Gold Activated Folate 500 provides folate in its activated form, 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF), the biologically active form of folate that the body can use directly. Unlike synthetic folic acid, which must be converted in the body, activated folate bypasses common genetic variations (like MTHFR polymorphisms) that can reduce conversion efficiency.

This advanced formula helps to:

• Support Preconception & Pregnancy – Folate is essential for healthy cell division, foetal development, and reducing the risk of neural tube defects.

• Aid DNA & Red Blood Cell Formation – Supports normal methylation, energy production, and oxygen transport.

• Maintain Cognitive & Mental Health – Folate plays a key role in neurotransmitter synthesis, supporting mood and brain function.

• Support Heart Health – Helps regulate homocysteine metabolism, a marker linked to cardiovascular wellbeing.

Why it works:
Folate is crucial for growth, repair, and methylation processes in the body. Using the active form (5-MTHF) ensures reliable absorption and utilisation, especially for individuals with reduced folic acid conversion capacity due to MTHFR gene variants.
