10 Side Effects of Folic Acid
Folic Acid Side Effect #10: Nervousness
While folic acid is generally associated with a reduction of anxiety, it can also contribute to it. If you take too much of the nutrient, you may find yourself being hyper-stimulated. This can lead to an increase in the speed of your thinking, an elevated heartbeat, and other symptoms of nervousness.
In this case, it’s best to simply reduce the amount of folic acid that you’re using. Anxiety symptoms will not persist for very long and will probably be gone by the next day.
