If this is a plant based vitamin is it folic acid or folate (natural) that is contained here? I don't want any synthetic folic acid. Thanks

I do believe that is what it is. I have been taking garden of life vitamins for over a year now and they seem to be the best (For myself anyway). Here is what gardenoflife.com said. It provides 150% of vitamin K, including raw MK-7 (vitamin K2) which is gently extracted at low temperatures from fermented Bacillus subtitles Natto. I hope this helps!

TY for the info did not know it has fluoride, was so close to pressing buy, i don't care how little it is, fluoride is man made and i sure will stay away. There is a info push how there is natural fluoride, i don't buy that. Natural means the plant produces the fluoride, now really?

I called Nature's Way, who is the company that provides this multivitamin, and I was told that the source of Vitamin E that is in Nature's Way Alive Multivitamin is derived from soy, so my next question was to ask her if the soy it was derived from was a GMO (Genetically Modified Organism), because most soy in the USA, unless it is organic and NON GMO Verified, is Genetically Modified. She told me that they try to the best of their ability, to make sure that none of their supplements contain GMO's, but that she cannot guarantee it. I hope this answers your question. By the way, in case you did not know, GMO's are EXTREMELY BAD! Avoid them at all costs!!!!

In one teaspoon there 80% of the Vitamin A and 100% of the Vitamin D. Not sure if it is natural though.

The following is copied from the Pure Encapsulation web site:"B-Complex Plus is an exceptional combination of B vitamins, including vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, biotin, and folic acid (as MetafolinL-5-MTHF), all of which are provided in their optimal bioavailable and functional forms.*"My interpretation of the above leads me to believe that, yes, this product does contain folic acid.

It's derived from food, not chemicals. Also, it's best to take b12 with a b complex because no where in nature is b12 found alone, it's meant to be absorbed with all the other b vitamins. It's always best to get b12 from food(it's found in small amounts in a lot of different veggies including leafy greens, algeas, and sprouts. Anybody who tells you otherwise is missinformed or lying to you), but if you are having digestive problems, then this is the best quality b complex you will find, and the next best thing to b12 injections. Personally, I'm not a fan at all of putting synthetic chemicals into my body, and I believe if you can't get all of the nutrients you need from food then an organic, food derived supplement is your best bet. Synergy Company is the highest quality Sup company I've ever found, even better then healthforce in my opinion. If you are interested in this, you should go to their website and look at a few of the stuff they have to offer. Hope my answer helped. - Josh

The label reads, "Folate (from folic acid and as QUATREFOLIC(R) (6S)-5-methyl-tetrahydrofolic acid glucosamine salt) 400mcg - 100%

According to the Supplement Facts on the container...Yes. Folate (Folic Acid) 400mcg.

It is a natural form of folate that is used when people have a genetic inability to synthesize regular folate. Folate is necessary for neurotransmitter support. Many people with folate deficiencies suffer depression or other problems. You should ask your doctor about the genetic test and you should also ask your doctor about the substitution of this supplement. I am unaware as to how this supplement compares in terms of strength and absorption.

Sorry- it's not an issue for me, so I did not note that info. It is my belief however, that ingredients of the product are plant based.

Recommend Deva Vegan Vitamins Vegan Tiny Tab Multivitamin & Mineral instead with 100% B12. I've been a vegan for 40 years and haven't had any B12 issues.

It contains folate (from folic acid and quatrefolic). Don't kow if that helps or not. But this is what the product label indicates.

This product does not contain folic acid. It has L-methylfolate, or methylfolate. Methylfolate is the active form for the body, and is not contraindicated in people with MTHFR gene mutations. This does not contain folic acid.

Folate is naturally occurring in foliage ie. leafy green vegetables and folic acid is the synthetic form of folate that is put into vitamins.

I believe they are from a natural source, but I couldn't swear by it. My understanding is that they are a whole foods vitamin, because they are the best for us, and it was how the company began. The company's motto is "Trust the leaf". They list the sources of the ingredients on the label, which they have on the Amazon page where I purchased mine.
