These past few weeks we’ve been talking about the link between MTHFR and the production of different neurotransmitters via the BH4 pathway. This includes serotonin and melatonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine and epinephrine. The research seems to mostly agree that people…
MTHFR can be with mental health issues including depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive traits, and global issues like bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. Culturally, we tend to jump to the idea that all mental health issues are neurotransmitter problems and that the only…
MTHFR can come with a whole host of mental health issues including depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive traits, and broader issues like bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. Culturally, we tend to jump to the idea that all mental health issues are neurotransmitter problems…
MTHFR can come with a whole host of mental health issues including depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive traits, and more major states like bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. Culturally, we tend to jump to the idea that all mental health issues are neurotransmitter…
We’ve had a number of heavy topics lately and I wanted to lighten it all up a bit this week by talking about something that is sorely needed for many MTHFR folks. That is ease. Ease, ironically, is something we…
This question seems to come up frequently in the MTHFR community, Genetic Rockstars. And of course, B12 levels have a lot to do with how you feel and how well you’re methylating on a daily basis, so it’s a really…
Fish oil, which we talked about last week as well, continues to be a big deal for people with the MTHFR mutation. Today, I want to discuss a couple of studies about gene expression, fish oil, and MTHFR, but first…
We’ve all heard about fish oils and omega3 fatty acids for so many incredible reasons. They are strongly anti-inflammatory and perform almost as well as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory tests for pain relief, without side effects. They have been most strongly studied…
As with everything to do with MTHFR, balancing your methylation and boosting your B vitamins, especially B2, folate or 5-LMTHF, and B12, is the first step. Balance your methylation! There are some other things you can look into as well.…
These past few weeks we’ve gone over some general information about MTHFR and homocysteine, the link between methionine and homocysteine, and the new information about MTHFR, homocysteine, and Covid-19. What we haven’t talked about is Homocysteine testing and parameters –…
