Memory scores like people about 4.7 years younger, after 3 years
In the FACIT trial, 818 older adults took 800µg of folic acid every day for 3 years and scored on memory tests like people about 4.7 years younger than their age. Folate only helps if the body can use it, which is why we deliver it as L-5-MTHF (methylfolate), the active form, rather than folic acid. Folate contributes to normal psychological function.
