Get B Vitamins from Food Sources
Supplementing with methyl folate or phylinic acid may not be necessary as methylated forms of B vitamins are available in food sources like fruits, vegetables, eggs, liver, and heart. Some plant foods rich in folate may also contain problematic substances like oxalates and isothiocyanates. Additionally, leafy vegetables like kale, spinach, and lettuce can concentrate heavy metals, making supplementation with methylated forms of folate less favorable. It is beneficial to focus on obtaining B vitamins from natural food sources rather than relying solely on supplements.
