Each full-dose capsule of Active B Complex provides adults with the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for the full range of B vitamins, including thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, vitamin B6, biotin, folate and vitamin B12. Active B Complex uses the active form of vitamins B2 (riboflavin-5-phosphate), B6 ​​(pyridoxal-5-phosphate), folate (Metafolin®) and B12 (methylcobalamin) which is better assimilated by the body. Metafolin® is a calcium salt of L-methylfolate, the primarily active form of folate in the body. Compared to folic acid, L-methylfolate has significantly higher bioavailability. For example, in healthy women supplemented with an equivalent amount (~400 mcg) of L-methylfolate or folic acid for 24 weeks, red blood cell folate concentrations were found to be significantly higher in women who received the L-methylfolate supplement.
