Question

Too much folate in the diet masks the symptoms of B12 deficiency anemia. This may lead to which of the following problems? A) Increased risk of heart disease B) Neurological damage C) Vision problems D) Digestive issues

Answer 1

If you take folic acid supplements and recognize any of these symptoms, consider getting your B12 levels checked. High intakes of folic acid may mask a vitamin B12 deficiency. In turn, this could increase your risk of brain and nervous system damage

Answer 2

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Folate can mask the symptoms of B12 deficiency anemia, but it doesn't address the underlying B12 deficiency. If B12 deficiency goes untreated due to the masking effect of folate, it can lead to neurological damage over time.
