    • Notes for Professionals: Folate deficiency may result in patients with chronic alcohol or ethanol consumption, and especially in alcoholic cirrhosis. Such patients may derive most of their caloric intake from alcoholic beverages which do not contain adequate amounts of folic acid; in addition ethanol may affect folate metabolism increasing folate loss. Supplementation in patients known to have excessive alcohol intake is prudent. Avoidance of excessive intake of alcohol would be recommended to help treat the deficiency.
