Cosmo Companion™ with Methylfolate – Alcohol Defense

No. As much as we are a women’s health brand, Cosmo Companion is 100% suitable for men as well.

You will not notice a physical difference, but the results from Cosmo Companion are instant upon taking the supplement. It’s much like giving your car an oil change. It won’t drive any better, but you know the engine won’t break down. Once you ingest the ingredients, your body will know precisely what to do with them, and since they are provided in their bioactive form, Cosmo Companion is metabolism-ready! This is important since standard B vitamins (found in so many over-the-counter cheap Multivitamins) require energy intensive conversion to their bioactive form. Many people also lack the ability, either due to genetics or an overloaded liver, to ever convert standard nutrients into bioactive forms. Cosmo Companion bypasses this problem due to our selection of only the most high-end, non-synthetic and bioactive ingredients.

As a general rule, Cosmo Companion is not a hangover supplement. The goal of our formulation is to help mitigate the negative health effects of alcohol and to support cellular health and correct regeneration, which is something that happens inside your body without you ever noticing it. However, our powerhouse list of ingredients do limit alcohol induced nutrient deficiency, support liver function and detoxification and also support alcohol metabolism and glucose stability. This means that you may see slight improvements compared to not taking the product when experiencing a hangover. Having said that, if you drank so much the night before that you are actually experiencing a serious hangover, you will experience it one way or another. Cosmo Companion still provides all of its health benefits, but you should not expect to feel any better as a result.

Unfortunately, no. MTHFR, the enzyme responsible for turning Folic Acid into methylfolate, is temporarily disabled by alcohol, decreasing folate absorption from the intestines and increasing its excretion in the kidneys, which basically means your Folic Acid supplement isn’t much more than a waste of money. Overloading on Folic Acid will not accomplish desirable results for alcohol consumers, which is why Cosmo Companion contains the bioactive, non-synthetic and metabolism-ready form of methylfolate and 15 other powerhouse ingredients to provide the best defense and support your health.

Our most frequently asked question, for sure. Here are 2 things you need to know:

First, if you have an MTHFR variation or mutation, your body’s natural ability to convert Folic Acid into Methylfolate is limited, which means you likely have a folate deficiency regardless of whether you drink alcohol or not. If you fall into this category, it is advised that you consume the recommended dose, 1 tablet per day. How do you know if you have an MTHFR variation or mutation? You wouldn’t unless you tested for it. However, it is estimated that almost half of Americans have one, so the odds are certainly high. Having an MTHFR gene variation is basically like having a typo in the gene that tells the enzyme how to function. The enzyme will still work, but its activity is compromised to only provide 65% to as little as 30% of its normal function. MTHFR variations are especially common among Hispanics, Caucasians and Asians.

Second, your diet plays a major role. Each person has different levels of Methylfolate in their body, primarily a result of how good or bad the diet is. Folate is found in nuts, spinach, collard greens, asparagus, peas, beans and fortified whole wheat sources. However, heat destroys it, which means that folate food sources like these have to be eaten raw to have any positive effect. With that in mind, a standard American diet would not provide anywhere near the amount of folate-rich foods required. So it may come as no surprise that folate deficiency is the most common vitamin deficiency in the world. So, if you are on a standard diet that does not include frequent intake of these raw foods, it is advised that you consume the recommended dose, 1 tablet per day. However, if you have significant and regular intake of these folate-rich foods and are not one of the 50% of Americans with an MTHFR gene malfunction, then taking the product only on days where you drink will work just fine. If this is you, try taking the product before you have a sip. If you forget, that’s fine as well, just make sure to take it as soon as possible afterwards.

No. If you take Cosmo Companion daily, there is no need to take your folic acid supplement. If you are pregnant, however, your physician may advise you to increase your intake of folic acid – this is fairly common practice. Depending on the recommended dose by your physician, you may end up taking more than 1 tablet per day, or use a folic acid supplement in addition to taking Cosmo Companion.

We recommend that you store your bottle in a cool and dry place like a kitchen cabinet. Putting your Cosmo Companion tablets in a pill container will work fine as well. Just make sure to keep it away from sunlight and humidity.
