L-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate Calcium (L-5-MTHF Calcium), also known as methylfolate or active folate, is a highly bioavailable form of vitamin B9 used in dietary supplements. It serves as a direct alternative to folic acid, as it does not require metabolic conversion in the body. This fine, stable calcium salt powder is designed for easy blending in capsules, tablets, and powder blends, making it suitable for OEM, private-label, and general wellness supplement formulations, including prenatal and daily nutrition products.
Manufactured by Jiangsu Chengxin Pharmaceutical, this ingredient is produced under controlled, quality-assured conditions to ensure consistent purity and performance. The production process is carefully managed to preserve the active folate structure, followed by crystallization into a stable, fine powder suitable for finished supplement applications. Each batch is supported with technical documentation to assist manufacturers with quality control, formulation, and regulatory needs.
L-5-MTHF Calcium is commonly used in prenatal vitamins, multivitamins, cognitive wellness, and cardiovascular support formulations where active folate is preferred. Its stable and highly dispersible form supports multiple delivery formats, including capsules, tablets, sachets, and nutritional powders. It is suitable for both B2B ingredient sourcing and consumer-facing supplement brands, offering flexibility for a wide range of modern nutritional product development.
