- Vitamin B9--Folate vs Folic Acid
Folate is the natural form found in green leafy vegetables, yeast, avocados, fish and organ meats.
**several glutamate residues and in the reduced form.
Folic Acid-synthetic, monoglutamate, fully oxidized, more stable
**greater bioavailability by 1.7 than Folate
Example: 60 mcg of folate-----60 mcg DFE(dietary folate equivalent)
60 mcg of folic acid---102 mcg DFE(dietary folate equivalent)
However,
Folate is converted to the active 5-Methyltetrahydrofolate in the GI.
Folic Acid is converted in the GI, Liver and other tissues. Which slows the process which can create a build up of folic acid which is associated with increase CA risk(not conclusive and more studies are needed)
Causes of deficiency: increased alcohol use, low dietary intake, smoking, pregnancy, CA, inflammation, IBD
Symptoms: increase homocysteine, increase risk of CA, increase MI/CAD, infertility, migraines, depression, decrease neurotransmitters, detoxification issues, anemia
Lab: Homocysteine, MCV (megaloblastic anemia), serum folate/folic acid
Genetic testing: MTHFR (C677T, A1298C)
Supplements: methylfolate, L-5 Methyltetrahydrofolate
Cofactors for methylation: Vit C, E, riboflavin, P5P, B12(methylcobolamin), magnesium, choline, trimethylglycine, MSM

Interesting, thanks for the breakdown doc.
Doctor do you recommend nutritional yeast powder should be taken to obtain the maximum in real authenticity since supplements can be synthetic ?????? Another reason is, we're trying to get Benfotiamine since it is lipid-soluble instead of water-soluble.
Hi Dr. Sung, do you know why L-Methlyfolic would stop working?
Cheers.
Thank you !
I heard that a lack of folic acid can cause canker sores.
Guess I'll cancel my order and order methylfolate instead.

So if i am low in folate and have been told to take folic acid whh should i if there are so many risks? Thank you
Amazing, thank you! And you included co factors for people that may have problems supplementing B9.
Do you have a similar video for B12, especially for those feeling fatigue when taking it?
We take a costly B complex of the '''enzymated, active methyl'' vitamin B's. A complete complex due to the admonitions that folks should always take a complex because the B vitamins become problematic if they are taken out of proportion or ratio to one another.
Any advice on what to take for thalassemia minor?
I wondered what the difference was. If its in mothers milk, you know which form to take. Very helpful.

How to reduce folate my levels are to high?
I’m hight in RBC folate 1700
I am very ill for past four months.
I administered myself too many metil b12 injections in July 2023.
No picture
I'm suffering a deficiency due to a gastric bypass 10 years ago. After declining number in my blood labs for the past 5 years, I'm now fully tanking. I've been on the bariatric team that I'm not doing well and have been ignored, so I began to do my own research and have found you and others like you (Dr. Eric Berg) on youtube that have helped to explain all this.
My bariatric team prescribed folic acid, but I knew that was wrong. So I just bought OTC folate. I wish it was a name brand I knew (hard to trust them) but folate is hard to find! Even online!
i heard a lot of negative things about folic acid
* cancer
@@roberto2568 oh my...
What to take anymore. Sigh.
