Folic acid would be a bad idea with undermethylators/histadelics due to it's histamine increasing properties. Whenever I take it my skin gets very itchy. :)

Folic acid tends to reduce homocysteine but also the available pool of methyl groups (SAMe) as well as methionine, which is what you don't want. The only good supplements for histadelics for reducing homocysteine is TMG since it doesn't reduce the total pool of methionine and SAMe.

Folic acid tends to decrease copper levels which histadelics/undermethylators are deficient in. Norepinephrine is the deficient neurotransmitter with histadelics. Copper is involved with the production of the enzyme histamine oxidase, as well as norepinephrine.

Supplements that decrease histamine are primarily calcium, magnesium, copper, vitamin D, DHEA (in men), TMG, and baking soda (sodium bicarbonate).

I would not follow Pfeffeirs (sp) recommendations. They are flawed.
