According to Dr. William Walsh, under-methylators who are also depressed respond negatively to folate. The reason is because the folate increases the rate of neurotransmitter reuptake far more than they are created. He's very adamant on this and has apparently seen this pattern in amongst his several thousand clients with brain disorders.
He basically says only over-methylators should be taking folate supplements. He mentions they respond very well to folate because it causes the reuptake of the over-abundance of neurotransmitters that they have.
This seems to go against what everyone is saying about under-methylators. Has anyone got any thoughts on this?
Here's a clip from Youtube where he talks about this briefly
