QF 400 Quatrefolic (6S-5 Methyltetrahydrofolate) 400 mcg Capsule
Product Description
QF 400 Capsule is a premium bioactive folate supplement containing Quatrefolic® (6S-5 Methyltetrahydrofolate) 400 mcg, a 4th generation, highly stable and readily active form of folate (Vitamin B9).
Folate plays an essential role in DNA and RNA synthesis, amino acid metabolism, and healthy red blood cell production. Folate deficiency is especially common during pregnancy and may lead to serious fetal complications such as neural tube defects (NTDs) including spina bifida and anencephaly.
Unlike ordinary folic acid, Quatrefolic® is the purest and most bioavailable active folate derivative, offering improved absorption, safety, and effectiveness without unwanted UMFA accumulation.
