5-MTHF for your pregnancy – The key to healthy Folic Acid levels

23 Jul 5-MTHF for your pregnancy – The key to healthy Folic Acid levels

Despite efforts to increase folic acid intake, even within countries mandating added folic acid into the food we eat, there remain pregnant women with dangerous low folate levels which can lead to congenital disorders during pregnancy. 5-MTHF has been proven to increase folic levels in as little as 4 days with simple supplementation.

5-MTHF increases Folic Acid, fast.

A 2018 study in the scientific journal, Nature, found that women who were deficient in folic acid supplemented 7.5mg of 5-MTHF and in just four days reached the recommended level of folate.

Additionally,  once the recommended level of folate was reached, to maintain the healthy level only required a 0.4mg supplement of 5-MTHF!

Is 5-MTHF just helpful for women?

No. As you’ll see below, 5-MTHF actually helps both men and women with the production of critical sleep and mood hormones.

The benefits of 5-MTHF

5-MTHF also contributes to the production of:

• Serotonin,
• Melatonin,
• Dopamine
• Epinephrine,
• and Norepinephrine.

Not only will the increase in the production of these hormones in your body cause you to have a more restful and complete sleep, but can also improve overall mood and reduce stress.
