Recent experimental evidence confirms that both folate deficiency and excess impair cortical neurogenesis and is greatest when vitamin B12 deficiency is combined with excess folic acid.

The balance between folate and vitamin B12 is crucial to methylation and to genetics and epigenetics. Both folate deficiency and excess may impair cellular differentiation and nervous system development by hypomethylation or hypermethylation of genes. In countries with folic acid fortification policies many subjects are exposed to excess folate. The long term genetic, epigenetic and transgenerational implications are yet to be clarified.
