Where does dietary folate come from?

As an advocate for a food-first approach, we can’t overlook the importance of eating food rich in folate, like green leafy vegetables (particularly spinach), brussels sprouts, asparagus, oranges, avocado, milk, yogurt, nuts, and beans.

But can you have too much folate in your system if you’re getting it from food sources as well as a supplement? There currently aren’t any guidelines that vary recommended amounts of folate supplementation based on food intake. But since folate is water-soluble, any excess nutrients will leave your body naturally. That said, in terms of the upper limit of folate supplementation, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) recommends no more than 1,000 mcg of folic acid per day.
