When I last tested in June my folate was very low, despite iron, Vit D and ferritin being ok. My ferritin is never brilliant, and v slow to increase but it doesn’t seem to cause me any issues.
Folate however was below range (2.08ug/l) on the medichecks system. I did continue my supplements but had to stop them ahead of a hip replacement on August. Since then I’ve been a bit lax in taking my supplements. (New kitchen , different layout, out of sight etc!).
Recently I’ve been suffering with palpitations, flushing with the slightest sniff of alcohol, breathlessness, and just generally feeling like my T3 isn’t quite as effective. Is suspect it’s the vits and mins that are the issue and not the T3 dose.
So since in June it was already low, plus surgery and then being very poor at supplementing, I suspect my level is really poor by now. I usually supplement with b complex, but is there a more efficient way to increase my folate level?
