How can the body convert folate into an active form called methyl folate (5-methyltetrahydrofolate) to be used effectively?
If someone doesn't have a genetic mutation in the MTHFR gene that impairs the conversion process, can they convert folate into the active form called methyl folate (5-methyltetrahydrofolate) for effective use?
Given that all my levels are within the green range—even homocysteine—does my MTHFR mutation still warrant supplementation with L-5-MTHF, methylcobalamin, or other methylation-support nutrients?
