In reply to Got my blood test back- High Folic acid...., posted by matthhhh on November 25, 2003, at 13:00:44
Just as a note and not implying anything, but alcohol elevates Liver Enzyme levels. I didn't know that amino acid tryptophan raised enzyme levels also so thank you for that information.
> Well I got my blood test results and they showed that I have higher than normal levels of folic acid and some higher than normal liver enzyme. I think ive heard before that folic acid increases ocd, so maybe this is making my ocd worse. Im only taking a multivitam though which has folic acid- so i think im going to cut that out and just take b vitamins separate.
> The second thing is the higher than normal activity of the liver enzyme. I did some research on it that shows that the amino acid tryptophan increases this, so that lower levels might be better- so ive lowered tryptophan to 0.5 grams per day and ive already noticed improved results. So what does everyone think?
