Overview

Pure Encapsulations B-Complex Plus provides all 8 B vitamins in their active, methylated forms including methylfolate (Metafolin L-5-MTHF) and methylcobalamin. This is critical for the estimated 40% of the population with MTHFR gene variants who cannot efficiently convert folic acid to its active form. The hypoallergenic formula is free from all major allergens. The 120-capsule count provides a 4-month supply.
