Thorne
5-MTHF 1mg
Support heart health, fetal development, nervous system, and mood with 5-MTHF*
Folate is a key component in the body’s methylation cycle, a series of biochemical reactions that play a beneficial role in multiple body systems. Heart and brain health, cellular energy production, fat metabolism, liver detoxification, and bone health all rely on a healthy methylation cycle.
Approximately 60 percent of U.S. adults have a genetic variation that makes it difficult for their methylation cycle to function optimally. For these individuals, methylated vitamins, like Thorne’s 5-MTHF, provide essential nutritional support.*
Features of 5-MTHF:
- Suitable for individuals who have an MTHFR gene mutation*
- Active, methylated folate (5-MTHF) means your body gets the highest benefit with the least additional work
- 1 mg 5-MTHF is recommended for support of fetal development during pregnancy*
- Easy-to-take, small capsules
Benefits of Thorne’s 5-MTHF:
- Nutritional support for individuals who have an MTHFR gene mutation
- Supports production of key neurotransmitters – serotonin, melatonin, dopamine, and epinephrine – natural brain chemicals that play an important role in regulating brain function and mood
- Promotes cardiovascular, brain, and bone health by maintaining a healthy methylation cycle and a normal homocysteine level
- Supports healthy fetal brain and spinal cord development
- Promotes blood and nerve cell health

INTERACTIONS: 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) supplementation is not recommended concurrent with methotrexate cancer therapy, as it can interfere with methotrexate's anti-neoplastic activity; however, this folate source has not been shown to interfere with the anti-inflammatory activity of methotrexate. An individual taking methotrexate for psoriasis or rheumatoid arthritis can safely take a supplement containing folate.
