  Importance of Maintaining Healthy Homocysteine Levels
  People with elevated homocysteine levels have a greater risk of cognitive decline. 
  Unlike folic acid, Life Extension 5-MTHF (in this Optimized Folate supplement) is able to cross the blood-brain barrier, which is especially important for people with cognitive difficulties, to enhance the synthesis of acetylcholine in the brain — the neurotransmitter associated with memory.
