Product Overview
Seeking Health Methyl B12 With L-Methylfolate provides methylated B12 and folate to enable your body to absorb these essential B vitamins better. The bioavailability of methylated vitamins is better than that of synthetic forms.
B vitamins are important for both physical and mental wellbeing. They support energy production and DNA production and repair. For a positive mood and healthy cognition, your brain needs these crucial vitamins. You may get these from your diet, but a minor deficiency may also cause a significant impact on your health.
Not everyone can metabolize synthetic forms of B vitamins. Some people may have the MTHFR gene variant, which interferes with your body's natural ability to convert folate and B12 into methylated forms for the methylation cycle. Methyl B12 with L-Methylfolate lozenges from Seeking Health provide these methylated forms directly, so that they can be readily absorbed.
Research Evidence
- In a randomized controlled trial published in the Nutrients journal (2024), methylfolate and methylcobalamin (along with pyridoxal-5′-phosphate) helped reduce homocysteine levels in people with MTHFR, MTR, and MTRR gene polymorphisms. This study highlights the importance of personalized interventions for susceptible populations.
- Compared to only folic acid supplement, women who were given vitamin B complex (methylfolate, B12, and B6) were found to have better clinical pregnancy and birth outcomes.
- Methylfolate may cross the blood brain barrier and reach the central nervous system. This is useful for neural transmitter synthesis.
- Recent clinical trials have investigated the use of L-methylfolate for depression symptoms. It was found to be safe and well-tolerated.
Product Benefits
Seeking Health Methyl B12 With L-Methylfolate has the following benefits:
- Active methylated folate and B12: This supplement provides both B12 and folate in methylated forms. It's well absorbable and supports healthy energy production.
- Important for methylation: The methylated B vitamins enable potent methylation. They also support healthy levels of homocysteine, helping your body to metabolize this metabolic toxin.
- Support for those with MTHFR: People with the MTHFR gene variant can't effectively convert folate to methylfolate and this can impair folate absorption. Methylfolate is directly available from this supplement, so that your body can readily use it without needing enzymes for the conversion.
- Supports mental clarity: The B vitamins present in this supplement support a healthy mood. They are also helpful for cognitive functions and brain health.
- Well-absorbed lozenge: Seeking Health Methyl B12 With L-Methylfolate provides both methylated vitamins in lozenge form. This starts dissolving as soon as you put it in your mouth and gets absorbed through mucosal absorption. Your body doesn’t have to wait for complete digestion for this supplement to start working.
- Easy to take: Lozenges are easy to consume compared to pills and tablets. They are tasty too, making you almost forget that you are taking a dietary supplement.
- Free from allergens: This supplement may be useful for people with sensitivities because it doesn't contain common allergens like dairy, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, gluten, soy, and sesame.

How it works ?
Seeking Health Methyl B12 With L-Methylfolate provides folate as True Folate (Quatrefolic), which features folate in bioavailable forms: methylfolate and folinic acid. Folinic acid is a methyl free form of folate that’s also readily absorbed by the body. Both these forms are easily absorbed by those with the MTHFR variant. It supports mood, DNA/RNA synthesis, cognition, fetal development, and genetic expression.
Bioavailable B12 is present as MecobalActive. It includes Adeno and methyl forms of vitamin B12. Your body can use them readily. They are coenzymes for crucial enzyme actions. B12 promotes healthy energy production and detoxification. Further, the methylated form supplies methyl donors for a complete and efficient methylation process.
Additional Information
Why Do You Need Seeking Health Methyl B12 With L-Methylfolate?
Whether you are a professional powering through foggy mornings, a student who finds it challenging to remember what you studied yesterday, or a parent juggling your endless to-dos, if low energy, scattered thoughts, or low mood are affecting you, just having additional cups of coffee can't be the right solution. In fact, it can result in energy crashes that make you feel worse.
Instead of quick fixes for energy, shift your focus to addressing nutritional deficiencies that are the main reason behind low energy. To improve energy production at the cellular level, you may need Vitamin B, particularly B12 and folate.
Unlike other synthetic folic acid supplements, Seeking Health Methyl B12 With L-Methylfolate gives you folate in just the right form that your body can absorb and use better. This supplement may be useful if you feel the following symptoms:
- Constant fatigue: You wake up exhausted, no matter the number of hours you slept. Your cells may be running on low energy because ATP production may be inadequate.
- Mental fog and forgetfulness: Slipping schedules, forgetting about the important update you had to finish, and such cognitive glitches can feel overwhelming and affect your quality of life. This is more pronounced in individuals over 40 and 50.
- Mood swings: The constant exhaustion coupled with anxiety can make you irritable. If you find yourself snapping at people over little things and want to change it, you may need mood support.
- Muscle aches: Feeling numbness or cramps in your muscles frequently? It could be because your muscles aren't receiving the nutrition they need.
- Pregnancy issues: If you are trying to conceive or are already expecting, the nutrient shortfalls should be your primary focus. Adequate folate helps increase the chances of conception and prevent neural tube defects in a growing fetus.
- MTHFR gene variant: Even if you take a regular folic acid supplement and eat foods rich in folate, the body may not effectively convert it in people having the MTHFR gene variant. This is more common than you think because this gene variant may be found in up to 40% of people. This gene doesn’t let your body convert the standard folic acid into methlfolate, the form that your body actually uses.
- Restrictive diet: Vitamin B12 is abundant in animal products and meat. Those who are on a strictly plant-based diet, such as vegans or vegetarians may not get enough B12 from their diet alone. This can result in low energy and a supplement with B12 can be highly useful.
B vitamins are important for DNA repair, detoxification, energy production, and mood regulation. The Seeking Health Methyl B12 With L-Methylfolate is unique, as it provides both B12 and B9 in methylated forms. This means your body can more efficiently absorb and utilize these vitamins.
What is Methylation and How Does Seeking Health Methyl B12 With L-Methylfolate Support It?
Methylation is an important and complex process with a profound impact on your physical and mental health. In this process, a methyl group, which is essentially a tiny molecule, gets attached to another molecule. It's important for
- Gene transmission
- Neurotransmitter production
- Energy production
- Detoxification
- Immune health
- Cardiovascular health
When the methylation cycle is efficient, your body turns genes on and off to work properly, produce important neurotransmitters, help cells convert food into usable energy, eliminate toxins, improve immune response, and regulate homocysteine levels (an amino acid that can be harmful to blood vessels).
Sluggish methylation leads to a cascade of health problems. Your body naturally produces methyl groups, but the production declines as you age. Poor dietary habits and lifestyle can further exacerbate this problem. Simply by taking methylated forms of essential B vitamins – folate and B12, you can also support this methylation process, as methylated vitamins serve as methyl donors.
Seeking Health Methyl B12 With L-Methylfolate gives you these methylated vitamins in standardized dosages. Consult with your healthcare provider before taking this supplement. To know if it’s right for you, you can also connect with our expert at Nutriessential.
