Can you take too much folic acid?
Hi Ladies,
Just wondering if there's such a thing as too much folic acid? I take my 400mg supplement as per ttc but i'm also considering taking a multivitamin to assist my ov'ing which also contains folic acid. I'm not sure how much yet as i haven't recieved it but i'm assuming not the recommended 400mg a day. I don't wanna take to little as i don't want to put any future beanie at risk, but can too much be harmful?
