Some research suggests that people with mental health disorders like depression have lower blood folate levels than people without depression.

Benefit of Folic Acid


For example, a large review of 43 studies including over 35,000 people found that those with depression tended to have lower folate levels and typically consumed less folate through their diet than people without depression .

Another review that included 6 studies and 966 people found that taking folic acid supplements alongside antidepressant medication could reduce symptoms of depression significantly more than taking an antidepressant medication alone .

So, more research in the area of folic acid and treatment for mental health disorders such as depression is needed before making recommendations.
