This episode explores three top topics from episodes in 2024: the mucus layer's protective role in maintaining gut barrier integrity, the bidirectional relationship between the microbiota-gut-brain axis and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, and the importance of methylation and the MTHFR gene. During the first topic of discussion, we detail ways to support the intestinal mucus layer; as we approach the third topic of discussion, we highlight the impact of MTHFR enzyme activity on methylation, emphasizing its importance for many cellular processes. Topics: 1. Introduction: 3 Top Topics of 2024 2. The Protective Mucus Layer Over the Intestinal Epithelial Lining The intestinal barrier: intestinal lumen, microbiome, mucus layer, epithelial cells, lamina propria, and more. The mucus layer functions as both a physical and biochemical barrier. Goblet cells secrete mucins, which form the gel-like mucus layer, critical for maintaining barrier integrity. Dysregulation of mucus turnover can lead to increased intestinal permeability and inflammation. Supporting mucus levels: SCFAs, N-acetylglucosamine (NAG). Plant-derived mucilage and sources. 3. HPA Axis and Microbiota-Gut-Brain Interactions The HPA axis and the stress response. Microbiota-gut-brain axis. SCFAs produced by gut bacteria can influence gut barrier integrity and stress resilience. Dysbiosis disrupts SCFA production, weakens the gut barrier, and triggers inflammation. Dysbiosis and HPA axis dysregulation. Chronic cortisol secretion and secretory IgA. 4. The MTHFR Gene and Methylation Methylation involves transferring methyl groups. The synthesis of SAMe, the universal methyl donor: methionine and ATP with active folate (L-methylfolate) as a precursor. MTHFR gene polymorphisms reduce enzyme efficiency, impairing methylation and affecting DNA stability, neurotransmitter synthesis, and detoxification. Strategies, supplements, and more to support methylation. Thank you to our episode sponsor: 1.

The liver is an organ that does many important things for the body, from reducing inflammation to detoxifying damage from inflammation. To support the liver, one should consume foods that support antioxidant production. Antioxidants help reduce inflammation throughout the body and help protect the heart, brain, and digestive tract from damage. Stress is a major cause of inflammation, and the liver will work overtime to try to reduce it. Consuming foods that support the liver's functions is essential to maintaining good health. The liver produces antioxidants, such as glutathione and NAC (acetylcysteine), which have pro, neurogenic and neuroprotective properties. Glutathione is often given via IV, while NAC is a precursor to glutathione and can be taken as a supplement. The World Health Organization recognizes NAC as an essential medication. In order to support the production of antioxidants, the liver needs nutrients such as vitamins B6, B9, B12, B2, B3, lgutamine, and methionine. The liver also helps regulate hormones, which are signals sent to the brain in response to stress. When we wake up, our body starts producing different hormones as a result of being awake. The liver is a key organ when it comes to hormone regulation. It produces cortisol, which is released to give the body energy in the mornings. It is also responsible for the regulation of thyroid, adrenal, and other hormones. When a woman is going through pre menopause, it is important to assess her liver health, as it directly affects the regulation of hormones. Additionally, the liver has a direct connection to insulin and is crucial for insulin regulation, which can lead to a variety of diseases and disorders if it is not healthy. Timestamps 0:00:04 "Welcome to the Nurse Doza Podcast: Five Tips on Liver Health" 0:02:53 Liver Health: Supporting Antioxidant Production for Optimal Health 0:04:13 The Role of the Liver in Antioxidant Production and Hormone Regulation 0:09:01 The Role of the Liver in Hormone Regulation and Insulin Resistance 0:10:40 "The Link Between Hormone Regulation and Liver Health" 0:16:04 The Impact of Birth Control and Environmental Stressors on Liver Function 0:17:21 The Impact of Poor Liver Function on Estrogen Regulation and the Methylation Cycle 0:21:03 "Tips for Supporting Liver Health with MTHFR Gene" 0:23:06 "5 Tips for Maintaining a Healthy Liver and Hormone Balance" 0:24:39 Heading: Benefits of Taking Liver Love Supplement for Improved Liver Function and Detoxification 0:26:40 "Liver Detox: Tips for Achieving Optimal Health" Highlights It has 16 ingredients in it that support the methylation cycle to support liver function and detoxification and the production of antioxidants. We love talking about the liver, because if the liver helps regulate hormones, then all of a sudden, if your hormones become balanced, you become balanced. So taking a supplement like Liver Love, which I highly recommend everyone does, I take it on a daily basis because it has methylated B Nine in it.. It's going to help improve your life. Use code nurse dosa for 15% off. There's 120 capsules in it, and you can play around with the dosage if you want. Some people take one a day, some people take two a day. But keep in mind, if you go to two to three pills, it's a heavier detox. If you do four pills a day, you're detoxing and cleaning out that storage unit. So be prepared. It's going to be the best thing for you. Number three fast food leads directly to unhealthy liver. One in four U. S. Adults have a fatty liver, which means one in four US. Adults are eating way too much fast food. Cut back on it and replace that type of fat with healthier fat like avocado. That's a great substitute for your liver. Number four bad liver equals bad estrogen for all the women out there. If you want better hormones, especially better estrogen, take care of your liver. Take some sort of supplement to help support your liver, like knack or maybe even milk thistle. And get off the birth control, please. So to recap, I want you to take away five different tips to support your liver health. Number one your liver makes antioxidants. Find the recipe to make yours. Either get an acetylcystein Ivs or start taking glutathione. Number two the liver helps regulate all your hormones. Keep this in mind the next time you're doing blood work because you want to include liver hormone or liver enzyme panels. Along with your hormone panels, ask your practitioner to order it alongside. That's the reason why all of our vitamins are methylated. Because of people like me. Every single Msw nutrition vitamin has methylated factors in it to help support the mthfr gene because people like me need it in order to function better. And on a side note, we'll get into one episode later, but the mthfr gene and the comt gene are directly connected. So if a person has an issue with both, like we mentioned before, it puts them at higher risk for estrogen and dopamine issues as well as detoxification and hormone regulation. That's my genetics. So I'm at higher risk for things like diabetes because of insulin problems with the liver, right? I'm at higher risk for low testosterone and higher estrogen, which could put me at risk for cancer. And then, because all these issues are also involving neurotransmitter production and the brain, what does that look like for vascular dementia down the road for me and cognitive decline?. Anyone that has an Mthfr issue needs to take methylated vitamins in order to support this gene and its many pathways. Some of the methylated vitamins that you could take are methylated B Nine, five, MTHF. There's also methylcobalamin, which is B twelve, and my personal favorite, P five P vitamin B six. I take these on a daily basis along with something known as trimethylglycine or betaine in order for my methylation cycle to work correctly, because I cannot afford to have any Undermethylated liver.

When we think of disability, we often associate it with stereotypical signifiers such as wheelchairs, handicap placards, and walking canes. We see these things when we are in public and they communicate to us that the person these things belong to lives with a disability. But, what happens when we don't see these signifiers That is exactly what we're going to get into on this week's program. Our guest this week is Theresa Rodgers and she lives with three invisible disabilities. They include Epstein-Barr Virus, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and a MTHFR Gene mutation. She will explain how each of these disabilities impact her in ways that nobody sees, including her work as a writer. Theresa also touches on how society treats those with invisible disabilities as though they are able bodied. This program was produced and hosted by Jacob Stanton with editing assistance from Denny Daughters and Dominick Trevethan.

In this episode, Dr. Ben Lynch joins me to explore the crucial role of the MTHFR gene, which generates the most active form of folate in our bodies, methylfolate. Dr. Lynch highlights how essential methylation is—a process supported by methylfolate—that impacts key functions like DNA repair, detoxification, and neurotransmitter production. We delve into the harmful impacts of folic acid, a synthetic folate, especially for those with MTHFR gene variants. Dr. Lynch presents compelling reasons to avoid folic acid and instead choose natural folate from foods or supplements with methylfolate. Additionally, we discuss the link between MTHFR variants and mental health, noting how methylation imbalances can contribute to mental health issues and the need to maintain proper homocysteine levels for mental well-being.

In this episode, Clive and Amie chat to Lisa Conway. A renowned member of the Hair Industry. Lisa Conway is a Salon Professional Extraordinaire and Author of tell-all book, The Naked Salon – An Essential Guide to Time, Team and Money for Salon Owners. With genuine passion and boundless energy, she heads up The ZING Project, a business dedicated to teaching Salon Owners how to step-up and transform their businesses. We discuss Lisa's journey of sobriety and her experience with ADHD. Lisa shares how growing up in a family with a history of alcoholism influenced her relationship with alcohol. She also talks about the connection between neurodiversity and addiction, highlighting the role of dopamine in seeking external stimulation. Lisa emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and understanding one's own needs, rather than relying solely on medication. The conversation touches on the challenges of ADHD, the impact on personal relationships, and the strategies Lisa has implemented to manage her symptoms. She discusses the impact of menopause, divorce, and her son's mental health struggles on her well-being. Lisa's story is relatable and inspiring, showing that it's never too late to make positive changes in life. She emphasises the need for kindness, authenticity, and self-care in navigating life's challenges. Takeaways Growing up in a family with a history of alcoholism can influence one's relationship with alcohol. There is a connection between neurodiversity, such as ADHD, and addiction, as individuals may seek external stimulation to compensate for a lack of dopamine. Self-awareness and understanding one's own needs are crucial in managing ADHD symptoms, and medication may not be the only solution. ADHD can present challenges in personal relationships, but it can also be a superpower, providing exceptional problem-solving abilities. It is important to create strategies and systems to help manage ADHD symptoms and improve overall functioning. Taking care of oneself is crucial for overall well-being Seeking help and support is important during challenging times Hormone replacement therapy and supplements can have a positive impact on mental and physical health It's never too late to make positive changes in life Open communication and self-acceptance are key in navigating the challenges of ADHD and brain health. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can be beneficial for women going through menopause. Kindness, authenticity, and self-care are essential in living a fulfilling life. Challenges and struggles can lead to personal growth and self-discovery. Focusing on the positive aspects of life and embracing imperfections can lead to a more joyful existence.

DrBeen#58 MTHFR Gene Mutation and the Risk of Clotting In the United States, 20-40% of whites and hispanics have MTHFR gene mutation (C677T). This mutation leads to reduced function of MTHFR enzyme to 65% of normal. The second most common mutation leads to reduced function of MTHFR enzyme, to 30% of normal. The result of these performance issues is reduced methyl groups' availability for methylation functions. The likelihood of clotting in the cardiovascular system increases because of the endothelial impaired function, clotting factor abnormalities, and increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

To begin we looking into Genetic testing at the clinics and how they're not giving customers copies of their results and therefore not telling them what gene mutations they may have. We then move on to Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and the dangers that these clinical drugs can impose on women. The second half of this episode gets deeply personal, Michelle shares her story of a failed relationship after the tremendous IVF toll, and the unexpected pregnancy of her child to a new partner, that relationship didn't last and she is now trying to negotiate to have a 2nd child with her fiance who is very skeptical after everything she has already been through and would hate to lose her through her pregnancy risks. We delve into her pregnancy journey where she was told the terminate her child at 23 weeks and then at 30 weeks another unexpected huge curve ball is thrown at her, where she had to hold on from giving birth or risk losing her child, everything that could have gone wrong during this pregnancy did so. After going through that intense story we finish our conversation chatting about egg donation.

We're digging into the MTHFR gene variant and why this matters when you are TTC. You may have heard about the importance of getting tested for the MTHFR gene variant if you are trying to conceive. MTHFR variants are associated with difficult conception and early pregnancy loss due to problems with the endometrium and implantation. IVF studies have shown that women with MTHFR mutations are more likely to experience recurrent implantation failure. Some men with fertility problems have low MTHFR function in their sperm. You can't change your genes, but there is a lot you can do to support your nutrient levels, bypassing the MTHFR enzyme. These include lifestyle changes, dietary habits, and supplementation. Today I'm excited to welcome Ricardo Miranda. Ricardo is the CEO of MTHFRdoctors.com. He is a clinician and one of the top researchers in the field of MTHFR genetic mutation. In this episode, you'll learn: 1) Why addressing MTHFR is essential when you are on the fertility journey (i.e. which supplement is essential and what so many people are still getting this wrong) 2) What studies tell us about MTHFR and optimal fertility 3) The link between miscarriage and MTHFR gene variant 4) Why testing blood homocysteine is crucial, and it's still not a standard of care in conventional medicine 5) Specific diet and lifestyle strategies and exactly which markers to test --- RESOURCES: Fab Fertile Method https://www.fabfertile.com/what-we-do/ I'm excited to announce the launch of our Fab For Life Naturals Fertility Collection!

Lyme disease can cause a range of symptoms, including fever, rash, joint pain, and fatigue, even arthritis, heart problems, and neurological issues. In the last two episodes, we spoke to Devon Dionne, Adrienne Nolan-Smith, and Robin Shirley who all used varying combinations of nutrition, detoxification, and alternative medicine to heal their Lyme disease. In this episode, you will hear Dr. Stephan Cabral give a listener advice on her Lyme disease. Then we chat with Aimee Valpone, who shares her harrowing story of overcoming Lyme and how changing her diet and learning how to detox saved her life when she was at death's door. Dr. Stephen Cabral is a board-certified Naturopath, Ayurvedic, Functional Medicine and Integrative Health Practitioner. He is the founder, creator and teacher of the Integrative Health Practitioner Institute. In today's episode Dr. Cabral answer's a listener question about Lyme, Sibo and the FODMAP diet. Then we will hear from Amie Valpone and her journey to heal. For years, Aimee suffered from various ailments, including Lyme disease and PCOS, and conventional medicine failed to provide a diagnosis. Doctors treated her symptoms with pill after pill, but nothing seemed to work. Even when she was lying in a hospital bed with morphine dripping into her arm, her HR department contacted her to say they thought she was bluffing, because she was blogging. This was the moment when Aimee decided that if she survived, she would dedicate her life to helping others. And that's exactly what she did. As Aimee began detoxing, many emotional issues surfaced, including the trauma from years of looking for someone to diagnose her, not being believed, and searching for answers. She started to detox her entire life, including holistic practices such as cranial sacral therapy and energy healing. Aimee shares her story on her blog to help others heal themselves. She guides them through health tests, including one that checks for the MTHFR gene, without which the body cannot properly detoxify. She emphasizes that high toxicity is one of the main reasons the body gets ill. This is where detoxing is incredibly powerful because it essentially gets the bad stuff out of your body. Eating organic foods helps the body cope with the bombardment of toxins. If you're interested in learning more about Aimee's journey and the power of detoxing, be sure to check out her book, Eating Clean: The 21-Day Plan to Detox, Fight Inflammation, and Reset Your Body.

The liver is an organ that does many important things for the body, from reducing inflammation to detoxifying damage from inflammation. To support the liver, one should consume foods that support antioxidant production. Antioxidants help reduce inflammation throughout the body and help protect the heart, brain, and digestive tract from damage. Stress is a major cause of inflammation, and the liver will work overtime to try to reduce it. Consuming foods that support the liver's functions is essential to maintaining good health. The liver produces antioxidants, such as glutathione and NAC (acetylcysteine), which have pro, neurogenic and neuroprotective properties. Glutathione is often given via IV, while NAC is a precursor to glutathione and can be taken as a supplement. The World Health Organization recognizes NAC as an essential medication. In order to support the production of antioxidants, the liver needs nutrients such as vitamins B6, B9, B12, B2, B3, lgutamine, and methionine. The liver also helps regulate hormones, which are signals sent to the brain in response to stress. When we wake up, our body starts producing different hormones as a result of being awake. The liver is a key organ when it comes to hormone regulation. It produces cortisol, which is released to give the body energy in the mornings. It is also responsible for the regulation of thyroid, adrenal, and other hormones. When a woman is going through pre menopause, it is important to assess her liver health, as it directly affects the regulation of hormones. Additionally, the liver has a direct connection to insulin and is crucial for insulin regulation, which can lead to a variety of diseases and disorders if it is not healthy. Timestamps 0:00:04 "Welcome to the Nurse Doza Podcast: Five Tips on Liver Health" 0:02:53 Liver Health: Supporting Antioxidant Production for Optimal Health 0:04:13 The Role of the Liver in Antioxidant Production and Hormone Regulation 0:09:01 The Role of the Liver in Hormone Regulation and Insulin Resistance 0:10:40 "The Link Between Hormone Regulation and Liver Health" 0:16:04 The Impact of Birth Control and Environmental Stressors on Liver Function 0:17:21 The Impact of Poor Liver Function on Estrogen Regulation and the Methylation Cycle 0:21:03 "Tips for Supporting Liver Health with MTHFR Gene" 0:23:06 "5 Tips for Maintaining a Healthy Liver and Hormone Balance" 0:24:39 Heading: Benefits of Taking Liver Love Supplement for Improved Liver Function and Detoxification 0:26:40 "Liver Detox: Tips for Achieving Optimal Health" Highlights It has 16 ingredients in it that support the methylation cycle to support liver function and detoxification and the production of antioxidants. We love talking about the liver, because if the liver helps regulate hormones, then all of a sudden, if your hormones become balanced, you become balanced. So taking a supplement like Liver Love, which I highly recommend everyone does, I take it on a daily basis because it has methylated B Nine in it.. It's going to help improve your life. Use code nurse dosa for 15% off. There's 120 capsules in it, and you can play around with the dosage if you want. Some people take one a day, some people take two a day. But keep in mind, if you go to two to three pills, it's a heavier detox. If you do four pills a day, you're detoxing and cleaning out that storage unit. So be prepared. It's going to be the best thing for you. Number three fast food leads directly to unhealthy liver. One in four U. S. Adults have a fatty liver, which means one in four US. Adults are eating way too much fast food. Cut back on it and replace that type of fat with healthier fat like avocado. That's a great substitute for your liver. Number four bad liver equals bad estrogen for all the women out there. If you want better hormones, especially better estrogen, take care of your liver. Take some sort of supplement to help support your liver, like knack or maybe even milk thistle. And get off the birth control, please. So to recap, I want you to take away five different tips to support your liver health. Number one your liver makes antioxidants. Find the recipe to make yours. Either get an acetylcystein Ivs or start taking glutathione. Number two the liver helps regulate all your hormones. Keep this in mind the next time you're doing blood work because you want to include liver hormone or liver enzyme panels. Along with your hormone panels, ask your practitioner to order it alongside. That's the reason why all of our vitamins are methylated. Because of people like me. Every single Msw nutrition vitamin has methylated factors in it to help support the mthfr gene because people like me need it in order to function better. And on a side note, we'll get into one episode later, but the mthfr gene and the comt gene are directly connected. So if a person has an issue with both, like we mentioned before, it puts them at higher risk for estrogen and dopamine issues as well as detoxification and hormone regulation. That's my genetics. So I'm at higher risk for things like diabetes because of insulin problems with the liver, right? I'm at higher risk for low testosterone and higher estrogen, which could put me at risk for cancer. And then, because all these issues are also involving neurotransmitter production and the brain, what does that look like for vascular dementia down the road for me and cognitive decline?. Anyone that has an Mthfr issue needs to take methylated vitamins in order to support this gene and its many pathways. Some of the methylated vitamins that you could take are methylated B Nine, five, MTHF. There's also methylcobalamin, which is B twelve, and my personal favorite, P five P vitamin B six. I take these on a daily basis along with something known as trimethylglycine or betaine in order for my methylation cycle to work correctly, because I cannot afford to have any Undermethylated liver.
MTHFR. Nope, it's not a bad word! In this episode, join Functional Nutritionist Brittany Golden to learn more about the MTHFR gene, short for Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase, and its roles in the body. She shares how MTHFR is a genetic SNIP that can result in a variety of issues ranging from thyroid issues, to heart conditions, and may predispose you to autoimmune conditions. From a nutrition perspective, MTHFR is primarily involved in folate metabolism, and plays a critical role in Methylation, which is a process that the body uses to detox in the liver, getting rid of neurotransmitters, and especially important for recycling excess female hormones.

Researchers link MTHFR gene variations directly to an increased susceptibility to high blood pressure, heart disease, colon cancer, stroke, recurrent miscarriage, blood clots, migraines and neurological issues, leukemia, Alzheimer's disease, anxiety and depression. Gosh, that is a lot! And 40% of us, me included, carry this. What can do somethings to prevent or postpone these diseases if we carry this variant?

This week on the podcast, I speak with Eric and Danielle, a couple who experienced two pregnancy losses after their first child. Their doctors suggested they wait for a third pregnancy loss before investigating why they had a loss. Instead, they moved forward with testing, and found that Danielle had the MTHFR gene. Eric and Danielle were able to implement medical interventions and had a healthy baby! Their story is a beautiful one, and I was so happy to speak with them. They also address how to respond to loss and grief, and share a poem they wrote for their children after the losses.
We know about all the negative rage that comes with the MTHFR gene but what does it actually do? And how does it actually affect your body? April goes over what the genes do, why they get a bad rap and the history behind it plus what you can do.

Tel and her husband had a long and tough two and a half years of trying for their little miracle. Tel was told she has PCOS so they went on to do 7 medicated cycles, unfortunately all with no success. After trying that they also did 2 IUI's but again unsuccessful. with IVF being a little out of their budget at the time they did some research into a bulk billing IVF clinic where she did 4 transfers but unfortunately again all 4 failed! Feeling super defeated Tel did some of her own research and found Dr Matthias in Sydney. He is a Reproductive Immunology specialist and was highly spoken about in the IVF community.Through his findings Tel was told she was ANA positive which means she has an active immune system so basically, it's attacking anything and everything. She also has the MTHFR Gene mutation so her body doesn't absorb folic acid properly and had a T cell imbalance. She was pleased that they had found something in their investigations so Alongside the Next stim cycle and retrieval she was advised to add Steroid injections, Antibiotics, Clexane and pessaries to better her chances of falling pregnant and having success there after. Im sure Tel is grateful to have found Dr Matthias, he is one of the very few Reproductive Immunology specialist in Australia, most IVF clinics don't offer the services he does.After all that Tel and her husband have been through- I can now say with a huge smile on my face that they are now pregnant and expecting the arrival of their little miracle later on this year.

The Case: Pam is dealing with brain fog, poor concentration, and fatigue. Tests revealed that she was low in Folate and Vitamin B12. Weeks of taking Vitamin B Complex didn't help her symptoms at all. A little more research helped Pam understand that not all B vitamins are the same - some are synthetic while other options are natural and in methylated forms. Inspecting the B Complex vitamin she'd been taking, she discovered that the B12 was in the cyanocobalamin form and the folic acid was also synthetic. You might think the mystery was solved at this point, but after finding a methylated B Complex at the local health food store, and taking it for several weeks, her symptoms persisted. She increased her dosage, but after several weeks, she felt even worse. Her labs showed that she was deficient in B vitamins, so why weren't her supplements working? The Investigation This is something I commonly see and while B vitamins are wonderful, they come in many forms but they are not ‘one size fits all.' And there is another misconception - people believe that because B vitamins are water soluble, they can't hurt anyone because the body will expel what it doesn't use. This isn't the whole story. How Methylation Works The body has a process called methylation. This is a biochemical process where there is a transfer of four atoms - one carbon atom and three hydrogen atoms (CH3) from one substance to another. This process happens all the time, every second. When its optimal it has a significant positive impact on many biochemical reactions in the body that regulate all types of activities. Methylation is needed for neurotransmitter production, detoxification, histamine metabolism, estrogen metabolism, fat metabolism, cellular energy, eye health, and immune balancing. Essentially, if you think of the body as a machine, then methylation (and demethylation) are the gears that trigger the different systems in the body. Two important methyl donors (nutrients that keep methylation moving) are methylated folate (also known as methyltetrahydrofolate or 5 MTHF) and methylcobalamin (methylated B12). It's worth noting that there is a gene called the MTHFR gene (which we've talked about in Episode 34) which makes it harder to convert folic acid from foods or supplements into active form. Understanding the Role of the MTHFR Gene in Methylation The process of methylation is quite complex. We have about 30 enzymes that are part of the methylation cycle pathway. The MTHFR gene is only one piece of the puzzle. And, while the MTHFR being off can cause issues with methylation, those other enzymes can also be a factor (sometimes a major factor). Balancing Methylation You may have heard that methylation is all about taking methyl folate or methyl B12 but there is so much more to it. Think of methylation (and methyl donors, specifically) as a bell shaped curve. You want to be somewhere at the top of the curve to be in balance. If you are lower on the left side of the curve, that is considered less methylation or being an under methylator. If you are lower on the right side of the curve, that would be considered too much methylation or being an over methylator. So many doctors don't realize this and think more is better. More is not always better, balanced is what you want to aim for. Symptoms of Unbalanced Methylation When you are not in balance (in either over methylation or under methylation) you can experience symptoms. And, taking more B vitamins (especially the wrong kind) may make things worse - even if you're taking methyl folate and methyl B12 (considered to be the best). There are tons of issues with sub optimal methylation and some can actually be the same when you are an over or an under methylator Anxiety Itchy skin Brain fog Mood changes Fatigue Jitteriness Allergies Immune challenges Environmental sensitivities And many more… How to know if you are an over or an under methylator? Looking at genetics can help but genetics don't actually show what is expressing and how it's affecting metabolism itself. I like to look at specific biomarkers to see what the body is doing rather than just looking at the genetics which can be a bit deceiving. For example, someone with MTHFR may not actually need more methyl folate. The good news is that there is a simple blood test. It's called the Histamine Determination Whole Blood Test. This lab test can be done at Labcorp. It is really helpful in determining if you are an under or over methylator. If the level is high, you are an under-methylator. If it's low, you're an over-methylator. This test is done at many labs but from everything that I have learned about it, it's something that is only accurate at Labcorp and needs to be sent there. As with most tests, there is a lab range and an optimal range.I made a handout on how you can check your methylation status. Please CLICK HERE to access this handout where I give the exact LabCorp test number so you can easily order or ask your doctor to order the test along with the optimal ranges. Based on those results, I detail which B Vitamins would be best for you. Supporting Overmethylation and Under-methylation Once you find out your levels, if you are an under-methylator, take more methyl donors such as: Methylated Folate Methylcobalamin If you are an over-methylator, take less methyl donors and look for ingredients such as: Folinic acid Hydroxocobalamin Adenosylcobalamin Mystery Solved If you are taking B vitamins and feel off, perhaps you are not taking the right ones. This can also happen with multivitamins. If you feel upregulated or like there is something under your skin that may be a sign of being over methylated. If you are very sensitive to chemicals, while there can be many things related here, methylation also plays a large role so please take a look at this. This was the case for Pam. We ran her labs and she was very low indicating that she is an over-methylator. We changed her B vitamins and she felt a huge difference in her energy and brain fog. Eliminating Health Mysteries For Pam we were able to find that missing piece of the health puzzle and help her regain her health. Could methylation be the missing clue for you or someone in your life?

Episode 41 with Liz Westinghouse. "I equate my brain with being a train station. Some people have 1 or 2 tracks, where I have 30 different trains coming and going." Liz and I have been friends for nearly 10 years, and after I (accidentally) came out about my diagnosis on Facebook, I quickly discovered she, too, had ADHD. According to Liz, she fits the ADHD personality type to a T. After growing increasingly frustrated (and bored) in the health care field for 14 years, she saw a proverbial squirrel and jumped fields into mortgage lending where she finally feels settled and happy career wise … we hope. She's long felt that she fits the ADHD mold and is delighted to have found her people within such a supportive community in which to learn, vent and grow. She lives with her husband and two children in the Hudson Valley region of New York. We talk all about ADHD and switching career paths, the myth of “adult onset ADHD,” as well as chronic burnout and the exhaustion of keeping up appearances. I've known Liz for nearly a decade, so we also discuss what it's like to have ADHD in long-term friendships where you float in and out of each other's lives. Finally, Liz talks about the connection between ADHD and the MTHFR gene abnormality and how she discovered a histamine intolerance after a bad experience with MSG. TRIGGER WARNING: We discuss elimination diets and also talk about my experiences with intermittent fasting, so if you have a history with an eating disorder or disordered eating, please proceed with caution or you might want ant to skip this interview.

Did you know that all humans have the same set of genes? In fact it's estimated that the human body has somewhere between 20,000- 25,000 genes. Our differences come from the tiny variations in those genes. Those variations influence not only how we look or how we behave differently than others… but in how our body reacts differently to external factors. Especially how it reacts to the foods we eat and the lifestyle we live.One of the more common and potentially problematic variations is known as an MTHFR mutation. On todays Friday Deep Dive, Cody and guest McCall talk about this common gene variation and how it can impact how well our body metabolizes folate, a form of vitamin B9, that's required for so many critical bodily functions. A fault in this metabolic cycle is linked to some serious health problems. Listen in as Cody and McCall talk about some of them today.Listen in to learn about:* What is MTHFR and what does it mean to have this gene mutation? * What signs and symptoms you should be aware of that could be indicators that you have this gene mutation?* How to get tested to see if you have the MTHFR gene mutation?* What percentage of people have the MTHFR gene mutation?* What people should take or avoid taking if they have the MTHFR gene mutation?Did you learn something new?

One of Integrative Nurse Practitioner, Nichole Ingersoll's favorite challenges is figuring out specific testing and assessing what needs to be done to solve a medical mystery. Patients may walk in with all kinds of symptoms or may have seen other medical professionals and still, they cannot get better. Nichole discusses how she works from the first conversation through testing, referrals, and many times, a happy, healthy ending.

We are all truly ignorant until we are not. The more we experience and educate ourselves the less "asshole-ish" we become. I had a significantly transforming moment the other day. I learned through a conversation with a brilliant scientist about a genetic mutation of the the MTHFR Gene. This mutation requires certain individuals to have increased levels of creatine. This often means for these particular individuals it is nearly impossible to function properly on a vegan diet alone. This is eye opening for many reason and brought a whole new spin to the understanding that there is no "one size fits all."

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions: Janice: I heard your podcast with Ben Greenfield. Have you had any success using detox approach to overcome symptoms of Parkinson disease? Can you help me? I am 64. Christinna: Dear Stephen I just wanted to ask, when you start to send to Europe, will it ever be possible for me to buy a lot of some of your detox and other good stuff. I have a Health Coach clinic in Denmark and i would be so greatful if i could give my clients all of your produkt, the all in one, i dont trust any other than you. Are there any way this could be possible? Kind regard Christinna Sean: Dr. Cabral, I've been interested in the health benefits of the Sauna for a while and would like to know if I should purchase a Infrared or a heat based sauna. I listened to your podcast 524 and am familiar with that JAMA study you referenced. However, I think you misrepresented that study. It was solely based on Heat sauna's not Infrared. Specifically they state: Our results of hot Finnish sauna bathing with a mean temperature of 79°C cannot be directly applied to steam rooms, hot tubs, and some other types of saunas, which may operate at lower temperatures than a typical Finnish sauna and do not allow pouring water on the rocks. I know there are benefits from infrared but infrared saunas don't get close to 79 degrees C (174 Farenheit) Can you comment on this and do you know of any studies comparing Infrared and Heat saunas? Thanks Janelle: Hi Dr Cabral, Im just needing help I dont know where to start as there are so many different stories protocol etc etc I have Lupus Fibromyalgia and now just found out I have the MTHFR gene x2 I honestly just dont know what protocol I should do there is Vegan low protein keytone intermittent fasting plant based etc etc all these protocols people say fix autoimmune im just so confused and i keep getting worse any information would be great. Regards Janelle Judy: Can you please address appendicitis and its relation to inflammation? Jen: Hi Dr. Cabral, I love your podcast - it is really the only podcast I listen to on a regular basis. I'm a health coach and am always learning new things and able to dive deeper with my clients because of your information. Thank you! I have two questions (I hope that's ok) I have been considering studying naturopathy for some time but also have read the textbooks by Dr. Vasant Lad and feel very connected to Ayurveda. I was curious if you had any advice for a young mother of two kids (ages 5&2) who wants to further her career. Is becoming an Ayurvedic Practitioner something you think will be a wise investment or if I am wanting some more financial stability, would it be better to invest in 4-5 years of studying naturopathic medicine. I realize both are enormous financial/time commitments, so I'm just trying to choose the best path. Any advice would be appreciated - also would love to know about any programs you might be able to recommend. My family is full of allopathic doctors, so their advice (while well intentioned) is pretty one sided. Ok, second question, I am curious to know what you think of Medical Medium? I know you are always a very positive person and make a point to not go on your podcast and offer criticism of anyone/anything - I appreciate that about you! I really love how Medical Medium has gotten so many people excited about healing by eating fruits and veggies. It's awesome! But I was curious if you could speak about the idea he shares that thyroid disfunction is typically caused by "thyroid virus" aka Epstein-Barr virus. Thank you again for all you do - really respect your work and willingness to share this information with the world. I honestly don't know how you have the time to make a podcast everyday alongside running your businesses and having a family. It is inspiring and honestly a little mind boggling, ha. Thank you! Jen Ann: Hi Dr. Cabral, Is there a safer shaving cream that we should be using or are drug stores brands okay? Thank you so much!! Judy: I recently heard that seed cycling can help balance hormones. What are your thoughts on seed cycling and what are your recommendations with regard to how to use seeds for this purpose? Jana: Hi Dr. Cabral, My name is Jana and I found you on Melissa Ambrosini podcast Vegan Done Right and I was fascinated. I am vegan for 15 years and everything you said resonated with me. I don't know if you personally read these messages but I hope this gets to you. My husband and I are so passionate about health and wellbeing and we try to constantly educate ourselves in order to feel best. We don't go to regular doctors and although we try to eat and live healthily we sometimes are not sure if we are doing it right and if we have some definitions that we are not aware. Being healthy is very important to us especially now trying to get pregnant. Is there a way how I can schedule a skype consultation with you? I was looking into your tests and I am not sure which one do I need to take. Please let me know if you provide some type of phone consultation first before ordering the tests. I would love to talk to you and hear your professional advice. Thank you so much Liana: Hi there, I think a great podcast topic would be the harms of plastics as well on how to go plastic free (or at least try to) in response to the plastic free movement. I’m surprised not enough people are aware of the harms to our health and environment Kind regards, Liana Cindy: I’m doing Amanda Tress’s program. What do you think of her program as a lifestyle long term?

If you or someone you love has been dealing with migraines or a mental health condition, this Body Buddies podcast episode is for you! Patty Butts, PhD sits down with host, Kristy Jo, to discuss the details of the MTHFR gene mutation, and how nutritional choices can manifest negatively in mental health. “All mental health begins in the gut," she said. "The vagus nerve and the gut are connected.” Patty goes on in the episode to explain how she understands the emotions that can trigger depression: anger, guilt, loss of esteem, love, etc. However, she feels there is more. "Of course there are emotional components, but we are missing the boat by not having a young person who is depressed or acting out not having their blood tested. I wish this could be taught in every health class. Our young people need to know there are physiological reasons they’re depressed. Sometimes it’s genetic, high histamine, or what they’re eating." Additional symptoms people experience should cause us to check for the MTHFR gene mutation. These include: Sleep disturbance Cardiovascular Depression Fatigue Chronic Pain Mental Illness History of Miscarriages Patty Butts is a Licensed Professional Counselor, has a Ph.D. in Holistic Nutrition, an M.Ed. in counseling, a B.S. in Communications & Journalism, and is the author of "Defeating Depression & Beating the Blues," and "Free Yourself From Chronic Fatigue and Fibromyalgia. She went back to school after battling Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia for 5 years and being deathly ill. Only then did she discover she has liver cancer and a fragile immune system. With an alkaline diet where she juiced every day and did microscopy, she was able to recover fully. She discovered she had more parasites in her blood than the doctor had ever seen. Within 4 months she was in remission. Patty is a Grandmother, mother of seven, stepmother to twelve. Clinical and medical hypnotist, NLP, and Certified Emotion Code Practitioner, and Life Coach www.healingyourspirit.com www.chronicfatigueandhealingyourspirit.com, Clinical Hypnotist, Jordan Heights Holistic Mental Health, South Jordan, Utah Certified Elan Light therapist. About MTHFR MTHFR is a genetic defect. It is an enzyme that adds a methyl group to a form of folate. This process is called methylation which is important as it. These enzymes impact gene regulation, hormones, build immune system, produce energy, and protect nerve cells. 40 out of 100 people have this and don’t know it… and now 1 out of every 2 people has some form. You can’t handle folic acid when you have MTHFR, which is in everything. The government mandated folic acid (B9) added to the foods due to birth defects and added to cereals and bread. It’s also in most vitamins so look in the medicine cupboard. Take methylfolate and active Vitamin B12. Candida craves sugar, dairy, and carbohydrates. It’s a yeast in you saying ‘feed me, feed me, feed me.’ IT can cause all kinds of symptoms like fibromyalgia, fatigue, and depression by building up the lactic acid. Taking antibiotics is like having an atomic bomb going off in your stomach. They produce all kinds of candida. They kill off good bacteria and produce growth of bad bacteria.

If you're feeling fatigued, dealing with being overweight, or battling other health issues that don't seem to be improving, you might have a MTHFR mutation. MTHFR is becoming more widely talked about as the importance of its role in our body's process of methylation is being studied. Some studies show that more than 40% of the population could have a mutation of this gene which could result in some significant health risks including, cancer, heart disease, and chronic fatigue. Learn more about this gene mutation, how you can find out if you have it and 5 steps that you can take to improve your lifestyle and counteract the impact of this mutation on your body.

My DNA Coach Podcast Episode 55: Joe Leech My DNA Coach, Jonny Deacon, interviews Joe Leech about one of the most important gene markers from a genetics test. The MTHFR mutation is one of the more common and potentially harmful genetic variations studied. It’s important to acknowledge that an MTHFR mutation itself is not inherently dangerous. However, it may cause you to experience an exaggerated response to poor diet or lifestyle choices that others seem to get away with. In this episode: WHAT IS MTHFR AND AN MTHFR MUTATION? TYPES OF MUTATION: c677T AND A1298C WHICH MTHFR MUTATION IS THE BIGGEST PROBLEM? SYMPTOMS LINKED WITH AN MTHFR MUTATION HEALTH RISKS OF AN MTHFR MUTATION We discuss how understanding why this happens, and the potential risks associated with it, is what makes genetic testing such a valuable (and fascinating) tool to support you in better health. This series will equip you with the knowledge and understanding necessary to live life unaffected by your MTHFR mutation - should you have one! Joe outlines the common misconceptions that surround MTHFR, as well as the possible implications it has for your overall health.

The concept of methylation keeps coming up since the confusion around the MTHFR variation first took hold. The body's ability to reign in inflammation events is based on the process of methylation. And methylation is an essential process regulated within the body by the MTHFR gene. So it's no surprise that serious health crises emerge when methylation processes are disrupted within the body. This week Dr. Jack and Mary give us some much needed insight into the science of methylation, and things all of us can do to mitigate the risk of MTHFR mutation or abhorrent expression. It's not a binary. Methylation and its effectiveness in individuals is on a spectrum. Most of us could benefit from support of the methylation processes within our own bodies. Tune in for details.
