Pure Encapsulations B12 Folate

B12 and folate work as a pair in the methylation pathway your body uses to keep homocysteine in an already healthy range, support red blood cell production, and maintain nerve cell function. Taking either one alone without the other misses half of that pairing, and a large share of the population doesn't convert standard folic acid efficiently in the first place.

Pure Encapsulations B12 Folate pre-packages that pair, working together to support methylation reactions and support cellular processes.

Both Halves of the Methylation Pathway – Instead of taking B12 and folate as two separate purchases, this combines both in the active forms your body actually uses, so you're covering the full pathway rather than half of it.

Skips the Conversion Bottleneck – Metafolin (L-5-MTHF) is the naturally occurring form of folate your body absorbs directly, which matters if you're one of the many people whose genetics make standard folic acid conversion inefficient.

Vegan Formula, Short Ingredient List – Beyond the two active vitamins, this capsule contains only plant fiber, ascorbyl palmitate, and a vegetarian capsule shell, with no dairy, soy, or animal-derived ingredients.

Each capsule delivers 800mcg of methylcobalamin, the active form of B12, alongside 1,333mcg DFE of folate provided as Metafolin (equal to 800mcg of L-5-MTHF). Folate and B12 both play a role in converting carbohydrates into usable energy and metabolizing fats and protein, and together they support the integrity of skin, hair, and the GI tract lining. Because Metafolin is already in its active form, it bypasses the enzymatic conversion step that standard folic acid requires, which matters given how common inefficient folate conversion is across the population.

How to Use Pure Encapsulations B12 Folate

Dose: Take 1 capsule, 1 to 2 times daily, with meals.

Start with one capsule daily and add a second dose if you're specifically targeting methylation support alongside other B-complex or multivitamin products, checking for overlap in B12 and folate content first.

If you are pregnant or lactating, have any health condition, or are taking any medication, consult your health professional before use.
