My doctor prescribed folbic acid because of the increased amount of Homocysteine in the blood, but also he indicated that it would help kick start absorption of insulin. I feel better and my glucose levels stay pretty consistant. I am controlling the Diabetes through nutrition.

I had many miscarriages before my doctor found a blood clotting disorder on both of my chromosomes. I started to take this and a baby aspirin a day -- I got pregnant and had a perfect little boy one year later. I will never stop taking this drug.
