A coordinated B-vitamin formula designed to support methylation processes as a system. Combines active B vitamins with trimethylglycine to support everyday metabolic balance.*
NuMedica Methyl-Plex B™ is a coordinated B-vitamin formula designed to support methylation as a system rather than through a single nutrient. It combines active forms of key B vitamins with trimethylglycine (TMG) to support everyday metabolic balance and routine cellular function.
This type of formula is often considered by adults who want structured methylation support without managing individual B vitamins separately.
Methyl-Plex B is commonly used in situations such as:
In these situations, a comprehensive methylation-oriented formula is often chosen to support multiple pathways working together.
Methyl-Plex B is not intended to replace medical care, address diagnosed genetic conditions, or act as a substitute for balanced nutrition and lifestyle habits. It is also not designed to function as a general stress or adrenal support formula.
This product is best understood as a focused option for methylation support rather than a broad wellness or energy supplement.
Methylation is an ongoing process that depends on several nutrients working together. Vitamins B2, B6, folate, and B12 each contribute to the body's energy production, nervous system function, and routine cellular maintenance.
Because these roles are interconnected, supporting the full system often feels more practical than emphasizing one vitamin in isolation.
The B vitamins in Methyl-Plex B are provided in active forms that the body can use without additional conversion steps. This approach supports predictable participation in everyday metabolic processes.
Active forms are commonly chosen when efficiency, tolerance, or age-related changes in nutrient handling are considerations.
Trimethylglycine, also known as betaine, supplies methyl groups that support methylation alongside folate and vitamin B12. It plays a complementary role rather than replacing B vitamins.
Including TMG helps distribute metabolic demand across multiple pathways, supporting steadier balance instead of relying on a single nutrient.
The formulas below represent the most common comparison points within the methylation category.
| Methyl-Plex B | Methyl Folate Optimizer | B-Replete | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Form | Multi-nutrient methylation formula | Single-nutrient folate focus | Broad B-complex |
| Primary actives per serving | Active B vitamins plus TMG | High-potency folate | Full B-vitamin spectrum |
| Release style | Standard oral capsules | Standard oral capsules | Standard oral capsules |
| Adjustability | System-level support | Targeted refinement | Daily baseline |
| Taste / format | Capsules | Capsules | Capsules |
| Best for | Coordinated methylation support | Higher or focused folate needs | Energy and general stress support |
Some individuals prefer single-nutrient folate or B12 formulas when only one component needs attention. Others choose a general B-complex when methylation support is not the primary goal.
Methyl-Plex B is most often selected when coordinated methylation support feels appropriate without expanding into stress-focused or adrenal formulas.
NuMedica Methyl-Plex B™ is designed to fit into a long-term routine built on consistency rather than frequent changes. It supports methylation as an ongoing process rather than a short-term intervention.
This formula reflects a system-oriented approach for individuals who want clarity and balance in their methylation support strategy.

Methyl-Plex B is a combination formula that provides several B vitamins in their active forms along with trimethylglycine (TMG). It is designed to support methylation as a coordinated process rather than focusing on a single nutrient.
Many B-complex formulas provide standard vitamin forms intended for general energy or stress support. Methyl-Plex B uses active forms of key B vitamins and is structured specifically around methylation-related pathways.
Active B vitamins do not require additional conversion before use. This can be relevant when nutrient demand is higher or when efficiency of processing varies with age or individual differences.
TMG stands for trimethylglycine, also known as betaine. It supplies methyl groups used in methylation and supports normal homocysteine handling alongside folate and vitamin B12.
Methyl-Plex B is intended for adults who want coordinated methylation support without managing multiple individual supplements. It suits those looking for a structured, system-level approach.
Homocysteine is a normal byproduct of protein metabolism. The body processes it using nutrients such as folate, vitamin B12, vitamin B6, and TMG. Methyl-Plex B provides these nutrients together to support routine conversion processes.
Methyl-Plex B is commonly used as part of a consistent, long-term wellness routine. It is often paired with balanced nutrition, regular movement, adequate rest, and realistic stress management.

In a time when many lifestyles consist of sedentary routines, poor dietary choices, and stress, adopting healthier behaviors can significantly impact our overall well-being. Our daily choices, including what we eat and how active we are, can either pave the way for good health or lead us to preventable health problems.
Have you been feeling nauseous and weak? You may have a magnesium deficiency. Also known as hypomagnesemia, magnesium deficiency affects over 2.5% to 12% of the general population.
Taking magnesium supplements can help with your symptoms and improve your quality of life.
The MTHFR gene often comes up in conversations about folate, methylation, and homocysteine. Some people carry variations in this gene that affect how efficiently their bodies process certain nutrients, particularly folate. Understanding what MTHFR does can help explain why some individuals respond differently to diet, supplements, and lifestyle changes.
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a naturally occurring compound that plays a critical role in cellular energy production and antioxidant defense. Found in every cell of the body, particularly in energy-demanding organs such as the heart and liver, CoQ10 supports mitochondrial function and helps protect against oxidative stress. As we age or face increased metabolic demands, CoQ10 levels decline - making supplementation an effective way to support cardiovascular and overall health.*
