Folic acid is not dangerous, its the inactive form once it enters the liver it converts to Tetrahydrofolate ( the active form) The problem lies when the persons body is not able to convert folic acid to THF due to enzyme deficiency this risk is worse if it was a pregnant woman, and by the way the population of north africa are genetically deficient from this enzyme so they must take the active form directly.
@@Katniss_cosmos Folic acid is indeed dangerous. It's the synthetic form of Folate, the body needs folate, especially pregnant women and young women of child bareing age. Stop putting innocent people at risk with wrong information.
I have been told to take it after my stroke (2005) which I was told was caused by my Sickle cell trait...Apparently the cells got trapped in one of my blood vessels and caused a bleed, but I have been taking 5mg for over 18 years now... do I have to take this for life??
Same question I wanted to ask…as I am planning for baby so started taking 5mg folic acid everyday as prescribed by Pharmacist..but when i see online videos and articles i get confused because they are saying to take 400mcg everyday!!

Hello Doctor, please help me: My wife is pregnant at week 11, she made folate test and the result (48 nmol), is that considered high level? Anything to worry about? Because I have read many scary things in google regarding the high level of folate during pregnancy and it was linked with Autism and brain issues, taking into consideration that I have one autistic child It would be highly appreciated doctors if you help me, I have asked the doctors who my wife follow up her pregnancy with them and they said nothing to worry and you can continue using 400 mg, but I still not convinced to be honest
