DEPRESSION can feel Life is Never Complete
Add the Missing Piece along with your SSRI Antidepressant Drug
Over-the-counter (OTC) Folic acid needs to be activated by your body before it can be used. Unfortunately, up to 70% of people with Depression may have a compromised ability to complete this activation.
LEVFOLATE Tablets L-methylfolate is the biologically active form of folate and is involved in neurotransmitter synthesis. L-methylfolate modulates the synthesis of monoamines can provide you with already-active folate so your body does not have to activate it for you to see a benefit.
LEVFOLATE addresses the body’s nutritional requirements and creates an environment that allows you to get the most out of your antidepressant therapy.
Folate for Natural Mood Support
If you struggle with occasional moodiness or find yourself feeling down, your body - in particular, you brain - could benefit from some extra nutritional support.
Maintain a happy, healthy brain with L-Methylfolate 5 Mg from Metabolic Maintenance.
L-Methylfolate 5 mg is a natural folate supplement that may support a healthy, positive mood by helping to maintain normal serotonin and neurotransmitter levels.
L-Methylfolate, a form of folate, is known as a TMM, or a trimonoamine modulator, and supports the synthesis of monoamine neurotransmitters including serotonin, norephinephrine and dopamine.
These neurotransmitters play a direct role in maintaining a healthy balanced mood and overall mental health and wellbeing.
Getting adequate amounts of folate, particularly L-Methylfolate, may help to maintain a normal balance of key neurotransmitters for a stable mood.
The active folate found in LEVFOLATE , L-methylfolate, crosses the blood-brain barrier and is thought to help enhance production of the neurotransmitters required by many patients to help achieve and maintain the benefits of antidepressants.
It assists in the formation of the enzyme co-factor BH4, also known as tetrahydrobiopterin .
BH4 activates the rate-limiting enzymes tryptophan hydroxylase and tyrosine hydroxylase for monoamine synthesis
Activation of tryptophan hydroxylase initiates a cascade that leads to the synthesis of serotonin .
Activation of tyrosine hydroxylase initiates a cascade that leads to the synthesis of dopamine and norepinephrine
Summary - The addition of L-methylfolate may regulate monoamine synthesis and help to manage depression by augmenting the therapeutic benefits of Antidepressant Drugs
