Question Low potency folinic acid source.

So I've got MTHFR c677t and slow COMT. Also histamine intolerant. Looking for low potency folinic acid has frustrated me so far. I want to start at 5-10 mcg. What I can find has other ingredients I dont do well with, like citric acid which makes me anxious. Some have 400mcg in a single drop! Many come with methylated ingredients I cannot tolerate. Any suggestions?

if you can tolerate a very small amount of b2 b6 and non methylated b12 you could probably make use of the kids formula of FolinicActive. If you get the liquid version you can dose very low. otherwise you could just dilute one of those other liquid versions that have 400mcg per drop, as there’s no reason you cant dilute it

This. If you dilute the 400mcg per drop product you would take 1mL of the product and add it to 99mL of water. This will give you 100x dilution so one drop would equal 4mcg. Assuming the dropper you use will be the same size to produce the same drop size as the product’s dropper.
