Pure Encapsulations B12 Folate
Pure Encapsulations B12 Folate can provide the benefits of two essential nutrients in one supplement. Both B12 and folic acid, also known as folate or vitamin B9, are necessary compounds that allow us to turn carbohydrates into energy, break down fats, and metabolize protein. They also help support digestive tract health*, nervous system function*, and healthy liver, skin, and hair.*

Enhance Fat and Protein Breakdown: Yes
Aid Digestive Function: Promotes a healthy gastrointestinal tract*
Support Essential Body Functions: Helps transform carbohydrates into energy*
Made with the highly bioavailable form of B12, methylcobalamin: Yes
Pure Encapsulations chose methylcobalamin rather than cyanocobalamin for their supplement. Cyanocobalamin is the synthetic version of vitamin B, while research shows methylcobalamin, the natural source, to be absorbed more readily and used more efficiently in the body. Folic acid and B12 are both water-soluble essential nutrients, so we need to consume them regularly in order to maintain a healthy body. Folic acid plays a vital role in the transformation of carbs to energy as well as the metabolism of fats and protein. This compound also has antioxidant effects and supports immune function*, which may help protect against oxidative stress.* Vitamin B12 plays a variety of different roles in the body. This essential nutrient supports normal nerve cell function* and is also necessary for the formation of DNA as well as red blood cells. Balanced amounts of B12 in the body can also help with energy production*, promote immune function*, aid gastrointestinal health*, help support cardiovascular health*, and enhance cognitive performance.* A top recommendation in our stores, this folate B12 supplement is a perfect choice for those looking for a powerful, natural B12 supplement.

FAQs About Pure Encapsulations B12 Folate Capsules
Q: Does this use methylated forms of B12 and folate? A: Yes. It uses methylcobalamin for B12 and Metafolin, which is L-5-MTHF, for folate.
Q: How much B12 and folate do you get in each capsule? A: Each capsule has 800 mcg of methylcobalamin and 1,333 mcg DFE of folate, which equals 800 mcg of L-5-MTHF.
Q: Should I take this with food or on an empty stomach? A: I'd take it with meals. The suggested use is 1 capsule 1 to 2 times daily with meals, and a lot of people tolerate B vitamins better that way.
Q: I've heard B12 can be energizing. Should I avoid taking it at night? A: If you're sensitive to B12, I'd take it earlier in the day. Each capsule has 800 mcg of methylcobalamin, so some people do better with breakfast or lunch than at bedtime.
Q: Is this one vegan and easy on sensitive stomachs? A: Yes. It's vegan, and the capsule is vegetarian cellulose. Pure Encapsulations keeps the formula simple, with cellulose and ascorbyl palmitate as the other ingredients, so a lot of people with sensitive stomachs do well with it.
Q: My doctor said to be careful with folate supplements. Is there anything I should watch for? A: Yes. If you take medications or have a medical condition, check with your doctor before starting it, especially since it has 1,333 mcg DFE of folate per capsule. If you're pregnant or nursing, talk to your OB or midwife before you start this one.
