A member asked:

Is there a connection between alzheimer's and folic acid?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Thanks for asking!: Low Folic Acid level may be result of reversible dementia. It is related to more nutritional deficiency that demented patients may have hard times to feed themselves or may refuse to eat themselves for no reasons.
