With my B12 deficiency, I take the folate 400 on injection days. But would the folate 1000 be better? Why or why not?
Folic acid Folate 400 mcg is a common maintenance dosage and is often sufficient as a supplement for a B12 deficiency. Therefore, always consult with your doctor to determine if a higher dosage is suitable for you, as an excessive folate intake without sufficient B12 can mask a B12 deficiency.
Hello, my question is actually in the title, but what is the difference between these two?! I can't quite figure it out?!?
Folacin contains the inactive form of Folic Acid, pteroylmonoglutamic acid, and is often referred to as folic acid. Folate contains folic acid in the bio-active form Folate as calcium-L-methylfolate Metafolin®.
The packaging advises consultation during pregnancy. Can you take the recommended amount of folate at the beginning of pregnancy, or is there a different dosage to follow?
Yes, this is the advised dosage for during pregnancy.
I can't find anywhere whether I should chew or swallow this with water...
The tablet can be swallowed whole with water. It is not a chewable tablet but can be broken or bitten into pieces if necessary to make it easier to swallow.
Hello, I also take Solgar Prenatal Nutrients daily. 2 per day. Should I also take an additional folate pill?
The Prenatal Nutrients contain sufficient folic acid, so extra is not necessary.
