- A complex of B vitamins, TMG, choline, and L-serine
- 3 forms of vitamin B12: methyl, hydroxyl, and adenosyl

LABS212 Homocysteine Support is a multi-ingredient dietary supplement formulated to supplement the daily diet with nutrients involved in homocysteine metabolism and B-vitamin-dependent metabolic processes. The formula combines trimethylglycine (TMG), choline, L-serine, and vitamins B2, B6, B9, and B12 in carefully selected forms.
A key advantage of the product is the inclusion of several different forms of each vitamin. Vitamin B6 is present as both pyridoxine hydrochloride and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (P-5-P), while vitamin B12 is provided in as many as three forms: methylcobalamin, hydroxycobalamin, and 5’-deoxyadenosylcobalamin.
Three Forms of Vitamin B12
One capsule provides a total of 100 µg of vitamin B12: 30 µg of methylcobalamin, 40 µg of hydroxocobalamin, and 30 µg of 5'-deoxyadenosylcobalamin.
The use of three different forms of B12 sets this formula apart from simple preparations based solely on a single source of this vitamin. Vitamin B12 contributes, among other things, to normal homocysteine metabolism, supports the proper functioning of the nervous system, and plays a role in cell division.
Quatrefolic® – the active form of folate
The formula is supplemented with 300 µg of vitamin B9 in the form of Quatrefolic®, the glucosamine salt of (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid. This is a form of 5-MTHF, a folate that does not require conversion from standard folic acid into the same form before being utilized in metabolic pathways.
Folate is involved in the process of cell division, aids in the proper synthesis of amino acids, and supports normal homocysteine metabolism.
Two forms of vitamin B6 and riboflavin
Each capsule contains a total of 5 mg of vitamin B6—2.5 mg each in the form of pyridoxal 5-phosphate and pyridoxine hydrochloride. P-5-P is the phosphorylated form of vitamin B6 used in numerous enzymatic reactions in the body.
The formula is rounded out by 8 mg of riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2. Vitamins B2 and B6 contribute to normal energy metabolism, and vitamin B6 also supports normal protein, glycogen, and homocysteine metabolism.
TMG, Choline, and L-Serine
LABS212 Homocysteine Support also provides 150 mg of trimethylglycine (TMG), known as betaine, and 50 mg of choline derived from choline bitartrate. These are compounds that occur naturally in the body and in food and are often used in formulas designed to support methylation processes.
The product also contains 50 mg of L-serine. Serine is an amino acid involved in many metabolic processes and is a component of naturally occurring biological structures and compounds in the body.
Vegan capsules and 90 servings
The product is encapsulated in plant-based HPMC capsules and is suitable for vegans. It is also gluten-free. The recommended dose is just 1 capsule per day, so a bottle containing 90 capsules is sufficient for 90 days of regular supplementation.
LABS212 Homocysteine Support is a comprehensive formula for those seeking a combination of TMG, choline, and B vitamins in modern and diverse forms, including the active folate Quatrefolic® and three forms of vitamin B12.
