Product Description
Most athletes know they need to pay attention to things like folate and B vitamins. What they don't know is that the form those nutrients come in determines whether their body can actually use them — and for a significant portion of the population, the standard forms in most supplements are essentially dead weight.
Here's the issue: folic acid (the synthetic folate in most supplements) and cyanocobalamin (the cheap B12 form) both require your body to run them through enzymatic conversion pathways before they become usable. A common genetic variation called MTHFR — affecting an estimated 40–60% of people to some degree — reduces the efficiency of those conversions meaningfully.
Even without that variation, conversion is an added step that costs time and energy your body could spend elsewhere. The downstream effects — flat energy, slower recovery, mood instability, and elevated homocysteine — are often chalked up to training load when the root cause is a folate and B12 availability problem.
Rho Liposomal Methylfolate 5-MTHF + B12 skips the conversion entirely.
5mg of Active Methylfolate Your Cells Can Use – This formula delivers 5mg of L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate — the circulating, bioactive form of folate your body actually runs on — per serving. That's a clinically relevant, high-potency dose in the form your cells can plug directly into methylation, DNA synthesis, neurotransmitter production, and homocysteine regulation without a single conversion step required.
1,000mcg Methylcobalamin B12 – Methylcobalamin is the neurologically active form of B12 your body prefers. At 1,000mcg per serving, this isn't a token dose. It's the level used when the goal is to meaningfully support B12-dependent pathways — red blood cell formation, nerve function, and the methylation cycle that folate and B12 run together.
Two Nutrients, One Critical Partnership – Folate and B12 are metabolic partners — they work together in the methylation cycle that underlies DNA repair, homocysteine clearance, and neurotransmitter synthesis. Delivering both in their active forms in a single liposomal liquid means they arrive together, absorbable, and ready to work.
How to Use Rho Liposomal Methylfolate 5-MTHF + B12
Daily Dose: Take 6mL (just over one teaspoon) once daily. Shake well before use.
Timing: Morning with or without food is ideal — folate and B12 support energy metabolism and mood chemistry throughout the day.
Pro Tip: If you're new to high-dose methylated folate and know you're sensitive to methyl donors, start with a smaller amount and build up over the first week or two. Some people experience a brief adjustment period as methylation pathways become more active.
Athletes dealing with persistent fatigue, slow recovery despite solid training, or a known MTHFR variant have the most to gain here. Stop guessing whether your supplements are working. Get the forms that actually get through.
