Frequently asked questions
- How is this different from folic acid?
- Folic acid is the synthetic form the body must convert. This product supplies folate already in its active (6S)-5-MTHF form — the methylfolate the body uses directly without that conversion step.
- What format is it?
- A vegetarian capsule. Jarrow's chewable B-vitamin products are separate items, so do not confuse this with a tablet or lozenge.
- Is it suitable for vegans?
- Yes. Jarrow lists Methyl Folate as vegan, non-GMO and gluten-free.
- What does the IGEN certification mean?
- IGEN is a non-GMO testing programme — it verifies the ingredients are free of genetically modified material. It is not a banned-substance or purity test.
