minkeygirl I've been thinking of this question since you posted it. I don't really know the answer. Maybe waiting for your results is intelligent. Those of us who choose to go onto a methylation protocol are looking for improvement in the way our bodies are handling just about everything.
If you're not feeling improvement in energy, and/or focus, attention, neurological aspects, then it's likely you need more. The suggested way to increase if you're using Freddd's Protocol is by approx 200mcg every day or 2. MethylB12 needs to go up as well, although not necessarily each time you increase folate. But the tendency is to have them in doses that are increasing in relation to each other. I've stabilized at MFolate 15mg and MB12 20mg, AdB12 3.3mg.
Sometimes when I increased the folate I got some histamine-like symptoms: runny eyues, itchy, restless. This is what Ben Lynch calls 'over-methylation' and advises B3/Niacin to slow tyhings down. However I've had excellent results at these times by just popping a 1mg B12, even at bedtime. I may or may not add that to my ongoing B12 dosagfe schedule the next day. I use self-testing to work out all my supplement dosages. cheers, ahmo
