You should know that the "over/under-methylation" theory is just that, theory.

Folic acid has been shown in studies to be beneficial for mental-health and life-extending, as well as protective against a variety of conditions. I don't think you should alter your intake of this required nutrient due to what a bunch of hippies made up, especially when some robust clinical studies on said nutrient have been done. ;)

As for methylation, I think it's that methyl donation is needed to create the enzyme that destroys histamine. Anecdotally intake of the methyl donor TMG generally results in a reduction in allergic symptoms, inflammation, etc.
