Folate is a key component in the body's methylation cycle, a series of biochemical reactions that play a beneficial role in multiple body systems. Heart and brain health, cellular energy production, fat metabolism, liver detoxification, and bone health all rely on a healthy methylation cycle.Approximately 60 percent of U.S. adults have a genetic variation that makes it difficult for their methylation cycle to function optimally.
