It is one of the three vitamins homocysteine depends on, so a raised homocysteine is a reason to look here.
This is the vitamin where too much is a real problem: long-term high-dose supplements cause nerve damage, so a high result is worth acting on rather than ignoring. It falls with inflammation independently of intake.
Worth discussing a high value on supplements, especially with tingling in the hands or feet.
