Vitamin B12 in a methylated form
III generation active folate

AH Methyl B12 + 5-MTHF Tabs is a dietary supplement containing a combination of vitamin B₁₂ in a methylated form and calcium methyl folate. These are active, ready-to-use by organism forms of vitamin B₁₂ and folic acid.

Vitamin B12 is the general name for compounds called cobalamins, with a similar chemical structure. In the human body, one of the naturally occurring and biologically active forms of vitamin B₁₂ is methylcobalamin.

Functions of vitamin B₁₂ include participation in the production of red blood cells, support of immune system function as well as being a part of cell division processes, and homocysteine metabolism. In addition, vitamin B₁₂ supports the normal functioning of the nervous system and the maintenance of psychological functions.

Folates are a group of compounds, the most popular of which is folic acid. It is the inactive form of folate and at the same time, it is the form most commonly found in dietary supplements. To become active in the body, folic acid must be metabolized by the enzyme MTHFR. In people with a mutation in the MTHFR gene, folic acid cannot be activated, so in such cases supplementation with a methylated, so-called active folate such as calcium methylfolate is recommended.

Folate is involved in normal blood production and cell division processes. It also helps maintain normal homocysteine metabolism and amino acid synthesis and contributes to alleviating feelings of fatigue and tiredness.

In conclusion, AH Methyl B12 + 5-MTHF Tabs is a dietary supplement containing active forms of folic acid and vitamin B₁₂, recommended to supplement the diet with these substances.
