Therapeutic high-dose of bioactive L-methylfolate uniquely formulated with the internationally-patented Magnafolate® PRO,
active vitamin B12, and
inositol to naturally support healthy mood, cognitive function, methylation and homocysteine support.
L-methylfolate is the predominant form of folate circulating in the body and used for biological processes1.
Studies show *15mg methylfolate + SSRI to be the most effective dose for improving depressive symptoms2.
Methylfolate is the biologically activated form of folate and the only form that can cross the blood-brain barrier3.

Why take Methylfolate 15mg+ Enhance Mood?
Synthesis of mood-enhancing
neurotransmitters (serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine) is regulated
by L-methylfolate, a derivative of folate10. Methylfolate
has demonstrated efficacy as an adjunctive treatment for individuals who
have not responded optimally to antidepressant therapy2.
Supplementing with 15mg methylfolate alongside SSRIs may be effective in improving symptoms of depression25. Methylfolate is absorbed more efficiently than synthetic folicacid which must be converted to active folate by the enzyme
methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR)13.
Hydroxocobalamin works closely alongside folate in converting
homocysteine to methionine to support mood and nervous system health.
Individuals with MTHFR mutations may raise their nutrient status more
efficiently with methylfolate11 and hydroxocobalamin26.
Inositol may be effective in treating
disorders responsive to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors,
including depression, panic disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder24.
Methylfolate 15mg+ Enhance Mood is 100% free from all fillers and additives.
Who is affected by MTHFR mutations?
The MTHFR mutation is much more
common than many people realize (it’s estimated around 50% of the global
population have at least 1 of 2 common variants). Approximately 25% of
the global population are carriers of the MTHFR mutation C677T, with
Hispanics making up the highest proportion (47%), East Asians (30%),
South Asians (12%) and Africans (9%). Another 25% of the global
population have the MTHFR mutation A1298C, which is highest in South
East Asians (42%) and Europeans (31%). The frequency of the 1298A>C
polymorphism in Hispanics and Africans is 15%14.
An increasing number of studies have
shown links between those with MTHFR polymorphisms and an increased risk
for high levels of homocysteine, depression, and reduced antidepressant
effectiveness15. MTHFR
is also linked to elevated homocysteine levels, which can cause serious
vascular diseases, dementia, infertility, and other chronic illnesses16.
For these people, L-methylfolate supplementation is shown to be the most effective way to provide this form of folate10.
Methyl-Life’s® Methylfolate is an
active form of folate that can bypass the MTHFR mutation. It is already
in its metabolized form, which means it can be readily absorbed and
utilized in the body for many biochemical reactions.
Why Magnafolate® PRO?
Methyl-Life’s® Methylfolate 15mg+ Enhance Mood is made with the internationally-patented Magnafolate® PRO, clinically
tested as the world’s purest methylfolate (Magnafolate® PRO is shown to
have significantly greater purity, stability and potency when compared
to competing brands Quatrefolic® and Extrafolate®).
Magnafolate®
is made with a form of methylfolate called L-5-MTHF-Ca, which is shown
to be the most active form of folate in the plasma circulation. When
compared with ordinary folate, L-methylfolate was found to be absorbed
faster and utilized more quickly in the body17.
