N-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid is a form of folic acid, which is an important vitamin for the production of red blood cells and the prevention of neural tube defects. It can be found in food such as leafy vegetables, whole grains, and citrus fruits. N-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid is important for DNA synthesis and energy metabolism. It also has been shown to exert antioxidant effects in human serum.
