Vitamin B Deficiency and
AD
• Elevated homocysteine and low folate
were associated with radiological markers
of neuropathology. Since no patient had
clinically deficient folate, it may be
important to rethink what defines
functionally significant micronutrient
deficiency and explore what this means in
different age- and health-status groups.
