Benefits of Optimized Folate

- Helps maintain healthy homocysteine levels

Healthy Homocysteine Levels and Their Importance
Folic acid, also known as folate or vitamin B9, is a commonly used B vitamin supplement that has been shown to have significant health benefits. One of its most important functions is to help maintain healthy homocysteine levels in the body.
Homocysteine is an amino acid formed as a byproduct of protein metabolism. Elevated levels of homocysteine have been linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases and cognitive decline. By taking Optimized Folate, you can be proactive and help maintain healthy homocysteine levels within the normal range.
Optimized Folate Formula for Overall Health
Life Extension's Optimized Folate contains 1700 mcg folate in the form of 5-MTHF, which is the metabolically active form of folic acid. This formulation is designed to provide you with the optimal dose of folate to support both your cardiovascular and cognitive health.
By taking Optimized Folate, you can help inhibit excess homocysteine, which in turn supports healthy levels of this important biomarker for cardiovascular health. This can be especially important for individuals who are aging and want to preserve their cognitive health.
What is 5-MTHF?
5-MTHF, or 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, is the biologically active form of folate in the body. This means it is the form of folate that the body can use directly without needing to undergo additional metabolic processes.
By providing 1700 mcg 5-MTHF folate per dose, Life Extension's Optimized Folate offers a highly concentrated and easily accessible source of this important nutrient.
Research and Studies on Folate and Health
There is extensive research supporting the use of folate to promote health and well-being. Studies have shown that folate intake may be linked to a reduced risk of cardiovascular diseases, a decreased risk of certain types of cancer, and improved cognitive function.
A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association examined the relationship between folate intake and stroke risk in women. The results showed that women with higher folate intake had a significantly lower risk of stroke compared to women with lower folate intake.
Another study published in the journal Neurology examined the relationship between folate intake and cognitive function in older adults. The researchers found that higher folate intake was associated with better cognitive function and a reduced risk of cognitive decline.
These studies and many others support the use of folate to promote both cardiovascular and cognitive health.
Recommended Dosage and Use
The RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) for folate for non-pregnant or non-lactating adults is 400 micrograms per day. Each tablet of Life Extension's Optimized Folate contains 1700 mcg 5-MTHF folate.
If you are looking for an even higher dose of folate, you can try Life Extension's High Potency Optimized Folate formula, which provides 5000 mcg 5-MTHF folate per dose. You may also consider combining these formulas with other B vitamins like vitamin B12 and B6 for a comprehensive nutritional profile.
