Pure Encapsulations Homocysteine Factors is a vegetarian capsule formula providing four nutrients integral to supporting healthy homocysteine levels and cardiovascular health: activated vitamin B6 (as pyridoxal 5' phosphate), folate (as Metafolin®, L-5-MTHF), vitamin B12 (as methylcobalamin), and trimethylglycine (anhydrous betaine).
Folate is supplied as Metafolin®, the L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (L-5-MTHF) form. Vitamin B6 is delivered in its activated form, pyridoxal 5' phosphate. Vitamin B12 is provided as methylcobalamin. Trimethylglycine is included as anhydrous betaine.
Clinical studies show that folate, vitamin B12, and vitamin B6 are vital in the metabolism of homocysteine. This combination of nutrients is described by Pure Encapsulations as highly bioavailable and integral to supporting healthy homocysteine levels and cardiovascular health.
Pure Encapsulations formulates Homocysteine Factors free from gluten, GMOs, soy, and dairy, and it is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

Vitamin B6 (as pyridoxal 5' phosphate) — serves as an activated cofactor supporting enzymatic reactions involved in healthy homocysteine metabolism.
Folate (as Metafolin®, L-5-MTHF) — L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate, a directly utilizable folate form, supporting healthy homocysteine levels; folate is vital in the metabolism of homocysteine.
Vitamin B12 (as methylcobalamin) — an active coenzyme form of B12 that supports the enzymatic conversion of homocysteine back to methionine.
Trimethylglycine (anhydrous betaine) — complements the B-vitamin components in supporting healthy homocysteine metabolism.
