Abstract:
A multiple folate composition having at least 3 different forms of folate comprising at least one of folic acid (a salt or ester thereof); at least one of a folinic acid (a salt or ester thereof); and at least one of a 5-methyl-tetrahydrofolic acid (a salt or ester thereof) is disclosed. The composition is useful as a nutritional supplement or medication in the treatment of folate deficiency and the sequella thereof and/or in conditions responsive to administration of metabolically useful folate. The compositions are particularly of use in patients who have impaired or reduced ability to convert folic acid to its metabolically active forms, and in the treatment of depression.
