Quatrefolic® bioactive folate – a superior form to folic acid and generic folate
You’re likely already familiar with folic acid or vitamin B9. But did you know that before the body can benefit from folic acid, it needs to convert it into bioactive folate?
This is a multi-step process involving a specific enzyme. Unfortunately, this enzyme has an incredibly high tendency to be damaged, and as a consequence, the enzyme is less active and produces a sub-optimal amount of bioactive folate. While not widely known, this affects over 40% of all people.
Essentials Folate 400 mcg contains Quatrefolic®, a highly stable, patented form of bioactive folate that is capable of increasing folate levels better and faster than conventional folic acid supplements. Because it doesn’t need to be converted, it delivers an already bioactive form of folate that the body can use immediately.

During preconception, pregnancy, and lactation
Folate supplementation is recommended worldwide for women in the weeks before conception to prevent neural tube defects.
Additionally, folate may play a role in successful conception for both sexes. A deficiency in men may result in excessive oxidative stress, which may affect fertility outcomes.
Not only that, but not taking folate before conception can impact the baby’s health before you even realise that you’re pregnant. Typically, weeks can pass between conception and a positive pregnancy test.
Folate is thus recommended for all women of childbearing age and all men engaging in sexual activity with women of childbearing age.
During pregnancy, women require higher levels of folate for rapid periods of cell synthesis, growth, division, and DNA repair associated with embryo growth. The typically recommended daily amount is 400 mcg.
For cognitive function, heart health, and general well-being
Folate plays a crucial role in homocysteine metabolism. Suboptimal folate levels may lead to increased homocysteine levels, which may affect cardiovascular health, cognitive abilities, and psychological function.
Post-menopausal women have higher homocysteine levels compared to pre-menopause, so Folate supplementation can be crucial during perimenopause and menopause.
Folate also helps reduce tiredness and fatigue and contributes to the function of the immune system!
Folate deficiency
Folate is involved in numerous metabolic processes in the body and thus plays a vital role in our health and well-being. As most people don’t consume nearly enough of this important vitamin through food, folate deficiency might be among the most underestimated health problems in Europe.
Folate deficiency can manifest as:
- fatigue and lack of energy;
- mouth sores;
- irritability and other behavioural changes;
- difficulty concentrating;
- anaemia; and
- weakness and shortness of breath (related to low red blood cell count).
