Description

Metagenics FolaPro provides a high-potency source of folate in its most biologically active form. Unlike synthetic folic acid, which must undergo several enzymatic conversions in the body, FolaPro features L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (L-5-MTHF). This specialized form is designed to bypass the conversion process, making it directly available for use by the body's systems.

Product Features & Specifications

Active Form: Features L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate, the primary circulating form of folate in the body.

High Potency: Delivers 1,330 mcg DFE (800 mcg) of L-5-MTHF per single-tablet serving.

Non-GMO & Gluten-Free: Formulated to meet strict purity standards and suitable for individuals with gluten sensitivities.

Vegetarian-Friendly: The tablets are composed of vegetarian ingredients.

Metagenics Quality: Produced in a facility that follows Triple Standards of Quality (TSQ) for purity and potency.

Bioavailable Technology: Utilizes the patented Metafolin® L-5-MTHF for reliable nutrient delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is Metagenics FolaPro?

FolaPro is a high-potency, practitioner-recommended folate supplement designed to support cardiovascular health, nervous system function, and cellular health. Unlike standard folic acid supplements, FolaPro provides folate in its active, L-methylfolate form.

What does the "1,330 mcg DFE" on the label mean?

DFE stands for Dietary Folate Equivalents. This unit of measurement accounts for the fact that the body absorbs synthetic or highly bioavailable forms of folate better than the folate naturally found in food.

Each single-tablet serving of FolaPro delivers 1,330 mcg DFE, which provides 800 mcg of L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (L-5-MTHF).

Why is active folate (L-methylfolate) better than folic acid?

Regular folic acid is a synthetic form of Vitamin B9 that must go through a multi-step enzymatic process in the liver to convert into L-methylfolate, the only form the body can actually use.

FolaPro uses a proprietary, metabolically active form of folate called Quatrefolic®. Because it is already in the active form, it bypasses the body's conversion steps entirely, making it immediately bioavailable.

Who benefits most from FolaPro?

While it supports overall wellbeing, FolaPro is especially beneficial for:

Individuals with the MTHFR genetic mutation: People with certain variations of the MTHFR gene have compromised enzyme function, making it difficult or nearly impossible to convert regular folic acid into its active form.

Prenatal Support: Folate is essential for healthy fetal neural tube development during pregnancy.

Cardiovascular & Mood Support: Active folate plays a critical role in the methylation cycle, which helps manage homocysteine levels (important for heart health) and supports neurotransmitter synthesis.

How should I take FolaPro?

The standard recommended usage is 1 tablet daily, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner. It can be taken with or without food.
