    The irony. If folic acid wasn't put in processed food, this wouldn't be an issue.

    In just a few seconds you just gave me the info I've been searching months for! I have low folate and keep having issues (anxiety, pain, etc) with the prescribed folic acid. I'm very familiar with his subject but everyone kept telling me there is no relation. They say I don't need the methylfolate version, but I'm doing it anyway! Can't hurt. Thank you for spreading awareness ❤️

    I’m taking the Methyl B Complex supplement, but will it also metabolize the folic acid stores from previously consuming synthetic folic acid supplements and foods enriched with folic acid? How do I go about detoxifying my body of folic acid? Thanks in advance.

    • @drrajsree
      @drrajsree  Před 3 měsíci +1

      If you take Methyl B Complex, you generally don't need to worry about small amounts of folic acid exposure or prior folic acid exposure.

    I have the mutation and started taking l-methylfolate like my doctor told me to but after two weeks I started getting itchy all over (no rash or hives or anything). Have you heard of this response before? Does this mean I need to take less of it, combine with b vitamins, or stop altogether?

    • @drrajsree

      No I haven't heard of this before. Maybe you're allergic to an ingredient. It's best to discuss with your physician.

    I take chlorella daily which has many b vitamins etc in it. Do I still need a bcomplex supplement daily? I feel overwhelmed trying to treat this mutation. Every treatment given to me previously made me worse because it was not tested for so folic acid, birth control, sulphasalazine etc all made me horrible unwell to the point I refuse to go back to a doctor as I feel traumatised. Do you think there is sufficient amounts in a green juice like chlorella?
    My son has similar symptoms to me too and I can't find a supplement for him

    • @drrajsree
      @drrajsree  Před 20 dny +1

      I'm not a big fan of chlorella due to some sources being from China and being contaminated. My son is age 13 and I give him our Methyl B12 Tablet every day.

    Can you have poor methylation mthfr if your b12 folate levels are normal

    • @drrajsree

      Yes. I prefer testing homocysteine which tells me more about methylation. Lower the better. Ideal homocysteine is better. You can learn more about this in my video on MTHFR:

      Due to the MTHFR mutation which is present in 50% of the population, folic acid can't be converted to the active form which is methylfolate.
