A member asked:
Is a folate (folic acid) level of 10 a normal level? does is it matter if my b12 level is low (276)? my homocysteine is 12.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: Your folate (folic acid) level is normal. However, one needs B12 for folate (folic acid) to work properly. Depending on the reason for low B12 you may need to take it by injection. See this site for more info on folate (folic acid). http://www.webmd.com/diet/folic-acid.
