Vitamin B12 works with folic acid in many processes in the body including helping the body metabolize nutrients and produce red blood cells.
Most B12 supplements contain cyanocobalamin. In order for the body to use vitamin B12, the liver must first remove the cyanide molecule and bond it to a methyl group to form methylcobalamin, the biologically active form ready for tissue absorption. Research shows that methylcobalamin is used and retained more efficiently in the body than the cyanocobalamin form.
Added to this formula is the methylated form of folic acid, 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF). 5-MTHF activates B12 in the body by donating its methyl group to cobalamin, forming methylcobalamin. 5-MTHF requires the enzyme 5-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) to be converted from folic acid to its active form, 5-MTHF. Abnormalities in the enzyme, malabsorption and congenital deficiency of 5-MTHFR can lead to a reduced ability to activate folic acid. In subjects with a genetic defect in this enzyme, 5-MTHF supplementation may be the best option for folic acid supplementation.
