It plays a critical role in methylation, an essential process that regulates gene expression and protein function. Low levels of methyl folate have been linked to a range of health issues, including cardiovascular disease, neural tube defects, and certain types of cancer. There are several ways to increase your intake of methyl folate. One approach is to eat more folate-rich foods, such as leafy greens, beans, and fortified cereals. Another option is to take a methyl folate supplement, which can be found in health food stores and online. However, if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, it’s important to speak with your doctor about your folate levels. Low folate levels during pregnancy can increase the risk of neural tube defects in the developing fetes.
