Who is Folinic Acid intended for for and how to use.Updated 12 hours ago

  • Methyl-free folate in a tasty, well-digested lozenge
  • Supports healthy methylation and homocysteine levels
  • Supports healthy cognition and mood

    Are you sensitive to methylated nutrients, but need folate supplementation?

Folate is essential for healthy methylation, proper growth, development, and cognitive function.

However, some people are sensitive to the active form of folate, methylfolate. They experience side effects such as headaches, nervousness, or rapid heartbeat after taking methylated nutrients.

For these individuals, folinic acid is an excellent, bioavailable, methyl-free alternative.

Folinic Acid by Seeking Health contains a potent dose of methyl-free folate as folinic acid. Each delicious lozenge provides 1,360 mcg DFE (800 mcg) of folate in a well-digested form.

Folinic acid is quickly converted into methylfolate, the primary form of folate in the human body. In this way, folinic acid supports optimal methylation, homocysteine levels, and energy.

Folinic acid takes a few additional enzyme steps before methyl groups are formed and then released for your body to utilize. This slower delivery can provide relief and comfort in those sensitive to methylated nutrients.

Folinic Acid supports healthy:

  • Mood
  • Methylation
  • MTHFR function
  • Energy production
  • Homocysteine levels
  • Correction of folate deficiency
  • Cognitive, memory, and brain function
  • Nervous system function and development
  • Prevention of neural tube defects during pregnancy

Folinic Acid is perfect for those who don’t prefer capsules. These delicious, well-digested lozenges are designed for optimal absorption and utilization in your body.

Suggested Use

Initial use for the first week, take ½ a lozenge by mouth, let dissolve slowly, then swallow. If needing more support, increase to 1 full lozenge. Take as needed. Do not take within 5 hours of bedtime as it may interfere with sleep. Use as directed by your healthcare professional.
