Thorne Research 5-MTHF
Struggling to keep your vitamin B levels within the normal range? Here’s a helpful solution that’s easy on your body! As many as three in five Americans have a genetic disorder that makes it difficult for their body to naturally convert folic acid into 5-MTHF. Thorne Research 5-MTHF does all of the work for you to help you overcome a vitamin B deficiency!
What is Thorne Research 5-MTHF? It’s vitamin B9! This essential B vitamin is the active form of folate. It’s crucial for a healthy pregnancy and fetal growth, but this supplement isn’t just for expectant mothers.*
- Pregnancy: Mamas and expectant mothers, keep you and your baby nourished during pregnancy with a folic acid supplement!* According to the CDC and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, pregnant women should take a prenatal vitamin that includes folic acid.*
- Infants: Plenty of folic acid is key to a healthy pregnancy and baby! A maternal vitamin B deficiency can contribute to low birth weight or neural defects. Keep your baby healthy, nourished, and developmentally on track with a folic acid supplement like Thorne Research 5-MTHF!*
- Mood: Folate plays a role in the production of melatonin (the sleep hormone), serotonin (a mood-boosting hormone), dopamine (the pleasure hormone), epinephrine (adrenaline), norepinephrine (the fight or flight hormone).*
- Brain: Because folate helps produce essential neurotransmitters, it also protects the brain against cognitive decline.*
- Heart: B vitamins, including folate/folic acid, participate in the metabolism of homocysteine, which may reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease or stroke.*
- Nerves: Support healthy nerves with a folate supplement like Thorne Research 5-MTHF! In particular, a regular vitamin B supplement may encourage healthier nerve tissues and repair.*
Thorne Research 5-MTHF is recommended for pregnant women, especially during the first trimester, but is also perfect for any individual with low vitamin B levels.

Cautions: Keep out of the reach of children. Consult a physician before taking this product if you are pregnant, nursing, taking any medications, or have a medical condition. 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) supplementation is not recommended concurrent with methotrexate cancer therapy, as it can interfere with methotrexate’s anti-neoplastic activity; however, this folate source has not been shown to interfere with the anti-inflammatory activity of methotrexate. An individual taking methotrexate for psoriasis or rheumatoid arthritis can safely take a supplement containing folate.
Allergy Warning: This product is contraindicated in an individual with a history of hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients.
