I have had simple partial seizures since 2001 (after a servere case of mono.) Lately, I have develped some kind of neuropathy. My blood work showed that my folic acid was 88 ng/mL.
Do you think this high level of folic acid might be affecting this recent on set of neuropathy?

Since folic acid fortification is now performed most people are getting the minimum necessary. The original minimum set by the FDA was too low and resulted in cases of spina bifida and other birth defects. You need all your vitamins and minerals all your life. There is some good evidence the amount of any one of them is dependent on such external factors as age, work, gender, diet, and other external factors. In the main, most people in the US get most of their needs. Notice I did not say all. If you suspect something is wrong and no one can determine the problem, discuss your ideas with your physician. That is what he is there for.

I donâ€™t agree with this specific write-up. Even so, I did researched in Google and Iâ€™ve found out that you are correct and I had been thinking in the incorrect way. Continue producing quality material comparable to this.

My programmer is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on a number of websites for about a year and am worried about switching to another platform. I have heard good things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress posts into it? Any help would be really appreciated!

The proper (not “safe”) amount of folic acid is in relation to B12 as well as the other B vitamins and your age. The problem is that no one has yet performed all the research necessary to determine these exact amounts. Since folic acid fortification is now performed most people are getting the minimum necessary. The original minimum set by the FDA was too low and resulted in cases of spina bifida and other birth defects. You need all your vitamins and minerals all your life. There is some good evidence the amount of any one of them is dependent on such external factors as age, work, gender, diet, and other external factors.
