Description
Product Overview
Swanson - Folate (5-Methyltetrahydrofolic Acid) is a carefully formulated food supplement that provides folate in its biologically active form, 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid (5-MTHF). The product comes in capsule form, making it easy to incorporate into your daily health routine. Each pack contains 60 capsules, enough for two months of daily use at the recommended dosage. Swanson is an established brand with extensive experience in health foods and food supplements, known for its high quality and focus on clean, well-formulated products without unnecessary additives.
Active Ingredients & Science
The active ingredient in this supplement is 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid, a methylated, biologically active form of folate. Unlike ordinary folic acid, 5-MTHF does not need to be converted by the body before it can be used, which means it is absorbed and utilised efficiently. Folate plays a central role in the body's metabolism, particularly in processes involving cell formation and repair. Swanson's product uses a stabilised form of 5-MTHF to ensure high quality and good shelf life in the capsules.
Benefits & Uses
- Suitable for those who want to supplement their folate intake with a form the body can use directly.
- Suitable for people who have difficulty converting ordinary folic acid into its active form, for example due to certain genetic variations.
- The convenient capsule form makes it easy to take with you and use regularly.
- Can be combined with other B vitamins for a broader nutritional profile if needed.
Whether you lead an active lifestyle, work long hours or want to ensure a consistent intake of important nutrients, this supplement is designed for daily use.
Use & Dosage
The recommended dosage is one capsule per day, preferably with a meal for optimal absorption. The product can be taken at any time of day, but many people choose to take it in the morning with breakfast to make it easier to establish a routine. If you use other food supplements containing B vitamins, it may be helpful to plan your intake to ensure a balanced dose. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
Quality & Manufacturing
Swanson manufactures its supplements to high quality standards and regularly tests them for purity and contents. The products are free from unnecessary additives and fillers. The brand places great importance on transparent information and reliability, so you can feel confident with every capsule.

The product is not suitable for children under 18 unless medically advised. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult a healthcare professional before starting supplementation.
