Cerebral folate deficiency (CFD) and Leucovorin (prescription folinic acid) are finally making news headlines 🗞️.
but...😬
The mainstream message is missing crucial distinctions.🔍
👇 Here’s the problem and why you should care:
Most conventional protocols jump straight to high-dose prescription leucovorin (aka folinic acid) without addressing the why.❓
Why isn’t folate getting into the brain?
What’s blocking its transport?
And why are so many still symptomatic—even on leucovorin?
💥 The real issue lies in folate transport—not folate quantity.
Even with “normal” blood levels, folate may never reach the brain if transport proteins or folate receptors aren’t working properly. That’s what defines cerebral folate deficiency—and it’s not limited to children or neurodivergent individuals....
Adults experience it, too.😦
Key culprits:
— 🐄 Dairy-triggered Folate Receptor Antibodies (FRAs)
— Elevated homocysteine
— Overexposure to synthetic folic acid
⚠️ Folic acid is not effective in the same way. Research suggests that it competes with naturally occurring folate forms at the blood-brain barrier. Avoid this always.
Folinic acid bypasses this blockade 🚧 ✅. It's the form your body can actually use, even when folate transport may be impaired.*
❗ Why folinic acid deserves your attention—regardless of diagnosis. It supports healthy:*
✓ Neurotransmitter production
✓ Biopterin recycling
✓ Brain methylation
✓ Mood, memory, and movement
✓ Slow COMT
✓ Methyl-free
🌱 If you’re supplementing with folate, choose forms your body recognizes:
✔️ Folinic acid
✔️ 5-MTHF (methylated)
❌ Never folic acid
