Some people are cured with high dose folic acid, though I've read in the 800mcg-1200mcg range which is way under your 5mg.
When folic acid is perfectly metabolized some of it naturally becomes what deplin is. The problem is we don't know if you metabolize folic acid perfectly or not. It has to go through stages and jump hurdles to get there. Any number of things can get in the way, such as genetics, heavy metals, and other unknown inborn errors or environmental insults. So high dose folic acid is a wing and prayer at creating deplin. Might happen, might not.
