Vitamin B12 and folate are important for the health of our blood. They are also important for psychological function and a lack of these vitamins may increase the risk of depression, irritability and apathy. They are also both required for the metabolism of homocysteine. High homocysteine levels have been linked to poor cardiovascular health. However, a genetic mutation can make it difficult to metabolise homocysteine, therefore those people would need to take these vitamins in their active forms: B12 as methylcobalamin and folate as L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5MTHF) instead of folic acid.
Suggested use is 1 capsule daily.
