Nutricost L-Methylfolate
Methylfolate (5-MTHF) with 1,000 mcg in one vegan capsule a day, 120 capsules a bottle
This is Nutricost's L-methylfolate: 1,000 mcg of methylfolate, as calcium 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, in one vegan capsule a day. The label lists it as 1,700 mcg DFE, or 425% of the Daily Value. The bottle holds 120 capsules, and the only other ingredients are rice flour and the plant-based capsule.
Folate is a B vitamin your body uses to make DNA and to process amino acids, and methylfolate (5-MTHF) is the main form of folate in your blood (NIH Office of Dietary Supplements). Most supplements use folic acid, which your body has to convert first. NIH notes that 5-MTHF from supplements is absorbed as well as or better than folic acid. Nutricost sells it as nutrient support for well-being.

How much folate is in each capsule?
1,000 mcg of methylfolate, which the label lists as 1,700 mcg DFE, or 425% of the Daily Value.
What's the difference between methylfolate and folic acid?
Folic acid is the form in most supplements and fortified foods, and your body converts it to active forms such as 5-MTHF. Methylfolate is 5-MTHF already. NIH notes that people with a common MTHFR gene variant make that conversion less efficiently.
What does DFE mean?
Dietary folate equivalents, the unit labels use to compare forms of folate. FDA lets brands count each mcg of methylfolate as up to 1.7 mcg DFE, so 1,000 mcg shows as 1,700 mcg DFE on this label.
Is it vegan?
Yes. The capsule is hypromellose, a plant cellulose, and the label carries an animal-free vegan seal.
