Active Folate for MTHFR Support — 5-MTHF 15mg

Folate is an essential B-vitamin involved in DNA synthesis, cell division, and the metabolism of homocysteine. But for many Australians, the standard folic acid found in most supplements and fortified foods may not be well utilised by the body. NCC Health's Methylfolate Capsules deliver 15mg of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) — the bioactive form of folate that the body can use directly, without the conversion step that some people struggle with.

The MTHFR Connection

The conversion of folic acid to its active form relies on an enzyme called MTHFR (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase). Variants in the MTHFR gene — estimated to affect a significant proportion of the Australian population — can reduce this enzyme's efficiency, meaning that standard folic acid supplements may not deliver the folate the body needs. 5-MTHF bypasses this conversion entirely, making it the preferred form for those with known MTHFR gene variants.

Why This Dose?

At 15mg, this is a high-dose formulation, typically recommended under the guidance of a GP, integrative medicine practitioner, or naturopath. It is not a general wellness supplement — it is designed for individuals whose healthcare provider has identified a clinical need for higher folate support. If you are unsure whether this dose is appropriate for you, please speak with your prescriber before starting.

Key Features

  • 15mg 5-MTHF per capsule — the active, ready-to-use form of folate
  • Pharmaceutical-grade raw materials
  • Compounded in NCC Health's TGA-compliant Gold Coast facility
  • Free from unnecessary fillers and artificial additives

Who It's For

Adults who have been advised by a healthcare professional to supplement with high-dose active folate — commonly those with confirmed MTHFR variants, elevated homocysteine, or specific nutritional requirements identified through blood testing.
