Hi Littledancingtiger that is absolutely fine.

Are you currently supplementing with folic acid?

No - I didn’t get on with it well so I gave up on it. Should my level be higher?

Sorry saw you’ve said it’s fine! What is a bad level? I’m worried it’ll drop.

No it needs to be below the 3.89 to be a problem and yours is above half way of the "Normal" range.

The best way to maintain that healthy level is to eat plenty of leafy green vegetables, such as sprouts, broccoli, asparagus, spinach, peas. beans etc

I wish you well and bid you a peaceful goodnight.
