Health Products Distributors, Inc. Folinic Acid (800 mcg) (60 caps)

FOLINIC ACID, which also is known as 5-formyl tetrahydrofolate, is one active form in a group of vitamins known as folates. In contrast to folic acid, a synthetic form of folate, folinic acid is one of the forms of folate found naturally in foods. Folate deficiency is believed to be the most common vitamin deficiency in the world due to food processing, food selection, and intestinal disorders. Folinic acid in the body can be converted into any of the other active forms of folate. FOLINIC ACID contains 800 mcg of folinic acid from a very pure form of calcium folinate. It is contained in a small (#4) gelatin capsule only with microcrystalline cellulose (filler) and silica (flow agent). It contains no magnesium stearate.
