- There is a growing body of epidemiological evidence that folate modulates anticarcinogenic properties through epigenetic changes, as folate deficiency reduces the potential for DNA methylation, and abnormal DNA methylation is associated with many types of #Cancer. - [1.2]
- Maternal folic acid consumption > strongly negatively correlated with abundance of Betaproteobacteria, Burkholderiaceae, and Sutterella - [1.3] [#Autism]
- lower levels of #Prevotella and #Bifidobacterium may lead to reduced levels of folate production due to diminished folate-dependent remethylation in ASD
