A member asked:

Can you determine if you have too much iron in your body by your folate (folic acid) levels? my doc says its pretty much the same thing.....

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Blood folate (folic acid) levels do not tell anything about stores of iron in the body. Are you sure you are not confusing ferritin levels with folate (folic acid)? Ferritin levels are a valid indicator of iron stores.
