## Overview

Life Extension Optimized Folate delivers 1700 mcg of metabolically active 5-MTHF, a form of folate up to 7 times more bioavailable than folic acid, supporting healthy homocysteine levels for cardiovascular health and enhancing cognitive function. This non-GMO, gluten-free, vegetarian supplement is crafted in the USA with premium ingredients and backed by scientific research, making it a top choice for proactive brain and heart wellness.

## Description

Folate helps maintain homocysteine levels within the normal range, which promotes cardiovascular health. And it also supports neurotransmitter synthesis — which in turn helps maintain cognitive abilities. However, not everyone has sufficient activity of the enzyme required to convert folate to its biologically active form, 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, or 5-MTHF. That’s why each vegetarian tablet of Optimized Folate provides 1,700 mcg of the bioactive 5-MTHF form of folate which is up to 7 times more bioavailable than ordinary folic acid.

## Features

- Get a brain boost – Stay proactive about your brain health and support optimal cognitive function with this folate supplement. This 1700 mcg vitamin B formula helps maintain healthy cognition—especially as you age.
- Pump up the heart health – This 5-MTHF supplement is a cardiovascular health superstar! Folate helps maintain already-normal homocysteine levels, an important cardiovascular health marker. Folate is a great way to keep heart health in check.
- Metabolically active form – 5-MTHF, the metabolically active form of folate, is good for your heart and brain health. But not everyone can convert the dietary form of folate (known as folic acid) into 5-MTHF. This supplement provides folate’s 5-MTHF form.
- Ingredients matter – We use only the finest raw ingredients with the purity and potency you deserve. The majority of our products are non-GMO, gluten-free and manufactured in the USA—and a Certificate of Analysis is available for every one.
- Live your healthiest life – We believe the answers to a healthier life are within reach, and that scientific research is the key to getting us there. That’s why so many of our formulas feature specific ingredients and amounts based on scientific studies.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: It says 1700 mcf DFE of folate, but how of that is actual folic acid equivalent?**
A: Hello, We apologize for any confusion. At the end of August of 2020, we updated our Optimized Folate supplement facts section. The amount of folate was updated from 1,000 mcg to 1,700 mcg based on updated FDA labeling guidelines. This change is a result of what the FDA has defined as dietary folate equivalents (DFE). They determined that 0.6 mcg of (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate, calcium salt is equal to 1 mcg DFE. They have also determined that one mcg of naturally occurring folate is equal to one mcg DFE. Their rationale is that this accounts for the greater bioavailability (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate, calcium salt compared to naturally occurring folate. The change to 1,700 mcg in this product allows us to deliver the desired potency in terms of DFE.

**Q: What is the expiration date?**
A: The expiration date on mine is 7/20/2023, but I bought it over 3 months ago. I have no idea what the expiration date will be on the bottle you’re buying.

**Q: Is this Metafolin?**
A: Metafolin is a trademarked name for the active form of folate, known as methylfolate. While Optimized Folate doesn't utilize this specific brand, it does include L-Methylfolate.

**Q: Is any component of your usa manufactured  product sourced from china or india?**
A: It's been a very long time since I purchased this product. I no longer have the container and have consumed all of the product. That said, I have since switched to Folic Acid 800 mcg made in Austin Texas and available on Amazon.
