Psst... There are Different Types of Folate. Which is Best For You?

The term "folate" is incredibly confusing because for whatever reason, the term is used interchangeably with "folic acid," which is an entirely different thing. This week let's talk about folate, folic acid, folinic acid, and 5-LMTHF and also, which is best to take if you happen to be an MTHFR mutant because really, who actually knows what the eff folinic acid is? We'll talk about: Which type builds up toxic unmetabolized products in the blood Which type is found naturally in foods like lentils and dark green leafy veggies Which type feeds most directly into cellular energy Which type feeds into neurotransmitter production Which type entirely bypasses the MTHFR enzyme. Also - great news about an MTHFR community, coming soon. See the full show notes here!
