Causes and harms of folic acid deficiency

In addition to preventing neural tube defects, folic acid can also be used to treat folic acid deficiency, which is usually caused by ulcerative colitis, liver disease, alcoholism and renal dialysis.

Folic acid deficiency causes an anemia called megaloblastic anemia, in which the bone marrow produces abnormally large immature red blood cells. Symptoms include extreme fatigue, palpitations, shortness of breath, open ulcers on the tongue, and changes in skin or hair color.
Causes and harms of folic acid deficiency
Lack of folic acid and other B vitamins can lead to a disease called hyperhomocysteinemia. There is too much amino acid homocysteine in the blood. This may occur in people with kidney disease or genetic diseases that affect the production of 5-MTHF. Chronic hyperhomocysteinemia is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease, recurrent abortion, and fracture in the elderly.
