More questions...: When you say you had a folic acid deficiency, how was that determined? Have you been checked for the MTHFR genetics to determine if you are able to utilize folate normally? This is a common genetic mutation. The answer is yes, you can take a multiple vitamin, and I wonder if all the questions have been addressed.
