My folate is low at 2.9 (range 3.0-17.0). I've been dealing with terrible reactions to every kind of inflammation, be it arsenic toxicity from rice, too much iron, gastritis flare-ups, vitamin A/carotene, oxalates, etc. I can't even go out when air pollution is high. It seems my body is bad at detoxing itself, and I get symptoms like brain fog, debilitating fatigue, mood swings, vertigo, anxiety, etc. My bloodwork is mostly okay except folate (b12 is fine, no anemia). As I understand it, folate is crucial for nerve function, so does it stand to reason that upping my folate level will help resolve those issues? I have a single mthfr mutation, and react badly to all methyl supplements.
