L-5-MTHF Capsules by Seeking Health provide 1,700 mcg DFE (1,000 mcg) of pure non-racemic L-methylfolate, an active coenzyme form of folate. Folate is a water-soluble B vitamin that occurs naturally in food, such as leafy green vegetables, citrus fruits, dried beans, and peas. The methylated form, L-5-methylfolate (L-5-MTHF) requires no additional metabolic steps to be used by the body, and is often the preferred choice for those with absorption or metabolic defects. L-5-MTHF efficiently supports methylation, DNA biosynthesis, homocysteine metabolism, and nervous system function. L-5-MTHF is easily absorbed and used by cells. It is the predominant folate in circulation and the only form of folate that can cross the blood-brain barrier.*

I rely on tinctures from Farmacopia to help alleviate stress and calm my nervous system. I put a few drops of this in water and drink before I go to bed. It leaves me feeling relaxed and centered!
I bought this for a friend who is dealing with joint pain and arthritis and she loves the effects. One of the best things about Farmacopia is that I know they've vetted and researched what they sell so I don't have to. I recommend them (both for products and services) to everyone I know. We're so lucky to have independent businesses like this in Sonoma County!
