*** Note, the methylfolate combo is almost identical to prescription DEPLIN® 7.5. Deplin is a treatment for folate deficiency only and does not provide other vitamins. 

Metafolin®, methylcobalamin, and NAC are all available over-the-counter. The Cerefolin website also says, "If your insurance company does not cover the cost of your prescription, Brand Direct Health® pharmacy guarantees you will pay no more than $58/month" ($174 for a 90 day supply). 

Things like this make me wonder if no one was ever supposed to eat wheat in the first place 🤪
