Key Benefits
- Essential for DNA synthesis and repair
- Critical for healthy fetal development

How It Works
Folate serves as a one-carbon donor in nucleotide synthesis (purines and thymidylate) and in the remethylation of homocysteine to methionine. It is essential for S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe) production, the universal methyl donor.
Why IV Delivery?
Up to 40% of the population has MTHFR gene variants that impair folate metabolism. IV delivery of active folate (5-MTHF) bypasses this genetic limitation entirely.
