What are methylated B vitamins?

B vitamins can be either methylated or non-methylated. Folic acid and cyanocobalamin, the standard forms of folate and vitamin B12 commonly found in supplements, are not methylated. In contrast, l-5-methyltetrahydrofolate and methylcobalamin are the methylated forms of folate and vitamin B12, respectively.

The methylated forms, L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate and methylcobalamin, have gained attention because genetic testing has become more common. Certain variants of the MTHFR gene, identified through these tests, are believed to decrease the efficiency of methylating folate and vitamin B12. However, research has confirmed that both methylated and standard B vitamin formulations are equally effective.
