Hi
I know that its risky to take any vitamins whilst breastfeeding other than prenatal vitamins, but I have recently had blood work done and my folic acid levels are extremely low and need to be supplemented.
I am currently nursing my three and a half year old infant.
I have been reccomended Methyl Care by Metagenics.
The ingredients per two capsules are as follows: ( I would take two capsules per day):
Riboflavin 1.6 mg
Vitamin B6 (as pyridoxine HCL) 25 mg
Folate (as L - 5 Methyltetrahydrofolate ) 800mcg
Vitamin B12 (as Methylcobalamin) 1000 mcg
Zinc 1.5 mg
Manganese 0.4 mg
Molybdenum ( as Molybdenum Glycinate ) 15 mcg
N - Acetyl- L- Cysteine 600 mg
Betaine HCL 500 mg
If I cant take this please advise what dosage of plain L Methylfolate I can take safely.
Thank you
