Quatrefolic® provides the reduced metabolic form of folate used and stored in the human body, (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate.
It supports women during the fertile period and is an essential nutrient for the pre-and post-pregnancy periods.
Furthermore, low folate blood levels are associated with a form of anemia.
Demands for folate increase during pregnancy because it is also required for growth and development of the fetus.
Folate deficiency has been associated with abnormalities in both mothers (anemia, peripheral neuropathy) and fetuses (congenital abnormalities).
Newer research in this area has focused on supplementation with l-methylfolate such as Quatrefolic® to prevent folate-related pathologies at different stages of a woman’s life.
