Folinic acid, also 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. In the body folinic acid may be converted into any of the other active forms of folate.

Our FOLINIC ACID contains 800 mcg of folinic acid from a very pure form of calcium folinate. It is contained in a small (#3) gelatin capsule only with microcrystalline cellulose as the filler. It is gluten, dairy and yeast free.

Dosage: As a dietary supplement take 1 capsule daily with food, or as directed by a health care professional.

Precautions: Patients with epilepsy should avoid folinic acid as it may increase the incidence of seizures.
