How it works
Folate is required for tetrahydrobiopterin synthesis, a cofactor in dopamine and serotonin production. Deficiency may impair dopaminergic tone in basal ganglia circuits involved in RLS.
Most relevant in confirmed or suspected folate deficiency (common in pregnancy, malabsorption, alcohol excess). Take with B12 to avoid masking deficiency.

“Some improvement but not as dramatic as I hoped. Might need longer to see full benefit. Still continuing.”
