Get Methyl-Life’s® most popular professional-strength, Mood-Elevating Bundle & experience full-spectrum absorption as well as therapeutic benefits.
These 2 products bundled contain the most bioavailable nutrients which target uplifting your Mood. Talk with your healthcare professional to ensure "professional strength" is right for you. This methylation 2-product pack contains the bioactive nutrients:
- The purest bioactive Methylfolate designed to get around genetic & absorption challenges
- All 3 active forms of B12 (as Methylated-B12, Hydroxy B12, & Adenosylcobalamin) for a full-spectrum mechanism of action
Check out the details below regarding each specific product included in the bundle using the links below:
-
- Methylfolate - Most stable & pure Methylfolate (15 mg) you can find
- Methylated-B12 - A power-packed 5 mg of 3 different Bioactive B12s per tablet
Did you know that recent research shows that taking B12 in a sublingual oral form is more effective for treating B12 deficiencies than actually getting B12 intramuscular shots? It's usually much more convenient and affordable as well - https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30632091.
Dosage
WARNING – How much is right for you to take? Talk to your doctor about what’s best for you. Before you purchase check out our dosage information to learn more about what some doctors recommend. And review our suggested methylation protocol as a potential step by step guide to some dosing options.
How to snap the tablet in half – See how its done via video. First find the half hash line and face it away from yourself (with the back of the tablet facing your chest/stomach), then put both of your thumbs next to each other along the line (as if there were one on the back of the tablet). You want the half hash line facing away from you (not on the side of the tablet where your thumbs are). And then you should be able to break it in half along that line every time by simply applying pressure to snap it outwards, by pushing your thumbs away from you. This approach works far better than using a pill cutter, which seems to cause the tablet to crumble much more.

FAQ'S
What is the right dosage for me?
Check out our Dosage page to learn what some doctors are saying. And consider reviewing our Methylation Protocol page as one example of how someone could start taking the active methylation nutrients.
What is included in the Mood Elevating Bundle?
What do doctors have to say about MTHFR and how to treat it?
How can the Mood Elevating Bundle benefit me?
What does this methylation package contain?
The purest Methylfolate, as demonstrated in a recent study.
All three active forms of B12, including Methylated-B12, Hydroxy B12, and Adenosylcobalamin.
How can these nutrients benefit me?
These bioactive nutrients are essential for supporting optimal methylation processes in the body, which play a crucial role in various physiological functions. Methylfolate and the active forms of B12 work together synergistically to promote overall health and well-being.
What can you do if you have high B12 blood test results? Dr. Amy Yasko and Nutritionist Cynthia Smith both suggest you can consider taking low dose lithium orotate (Cynthia Smith suggests approximately 4.6 mg pulsed a couple times a week before adding the B12 form in that’s most likely best for you).
How does Methylfolate adjunctive therapy benefit individuals with SSRI-resistant major depression?
My doctor said that because I have MTHFR, I should be taking Methylated-B12 as my B12 form, why are you suggesting these other forms too?
One of the most common other nutrients to consider when supplementing the methylation cycle is the proper form of B12. There are 3 different types of B12 that are considered very beneficial to the body (hydroxy B12, Methylated-B12 or adenosylcobalamin). Many automatically think that if you have an MTHFR defect, then you need the form of B12 called Methylated-B12, but that is simply NOT true.
It’s important to realize that the MTHFR status does not necessarily determine the type of B12 that’s best for you, instead it’s the status of genes like COMT, MTR, MTRR as well as VDR Taq. It is true that methylfolate and Methylated-B12 work together synergistically along the methylation cycle pathway, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that if you tolerate methylfolate well you’ll also need, want or tolerate Methylated-B12 well (even if that’s what most doctors, nutritionists, etc. are currently saying right now).
It seems there may be a general lack of education available to most doctors about the different forms of B12 and what those forms are as well as how they get converted within the body and what each is most beneficial for (not to mention which set of genes or genetic mutations could benefit most from which B12 type). So do your homework when it comes to B12 to see which you may tolerate best.
The most common form of B12 that you’ll find everywhere is cyanocobalamin and it is not very active or beneficial to the body because the absorption rate is fairly low, that’s because the body has to convert it first into Hydroxy B12, and from there the Hydroxy B12 has to be converted into both adenosylcobalamin and Methylated-B12. But if the body has genetic mutations then these conversions don’t happen well at all and the effect is the body does not get the absorption or use of the nutrient.
I have my 23andme test results, how can I use those to know which form of B12 I might best tolerate?
If you have your 23andme genetic test results, you can use those to help guide you as you try the specific B12 forms to see how they do for you. You’ll notice below that, according to Dr. Amy Yasko, the most well tolerated active form of B12 for folks seems to be Hydroxy B12. Every single one of the genetic combinations she lists below should be able to tolerate B12 in the form of Hydroxy B12 (and this is why our methylation protocol suggests Hydroxy B12 as the B12 form to begin with):
- Folks with multiple COMT mutations tend to do very well with Hydroxy B12 (it helps mop up excess peroxynitrites which can cause problems)
- Folks with MTR & MTRR mutations may do well with Methylated-B12 & adenosylcobalamin supplementation
- And Dr. Amy Yasko (https://dramyyasko.com) talks about folks with a particular mutation status for COMT & VDR Taq as best needing the below forms of B12:
| COMT V158M | VDR Taq | B12 Types That Should Be Tolerated |
|---|---|---|
| – – | + + (TT) | All 3 types of B12 |
| – – | + – (Tt) | All 3 types of B12 with less Methylated-B12 |
| – – | – – (tt) | Hydroxy B12 and Adenosylcobalamin |
| + – | + + | All 3 types of B12 with less Methylated-B12 |
| + – | + – | Hydroxy B12 and Adenosylcobalamin |
| + – | – – | Hydroxy B12 and Adenosylcobalamin |
| + + | + + | Hydroxy B12 and Adenosylcobalamin |
| + + | + – | Hydroxy B12 and Adenosylcobalamin |
| + + | – – | Mostly Hydroxy B12 |
