MTHFR is a gene that provides the instructions for an enzyme of the same name, which converts dietary folate into its active form, methylfolate. When there is a mutation in the MTHFR gene, this conversion process can be less efficient, potentially impacting the body's ability to process folate and homocysteine. This can affect numerous bodily functions, including DNA repair, hormone metabolism, and the creation of neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine.
Here are my low-tox recommendations and essentials i’ve found through the years!

I AM NOT A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL AND NOTHING POSTED HERE SHOULD BE CONSTRUED AS MEDICAL ADVICE. Always discuss medications with your medical provider before adding any supplements to your routine. Do not stop taking prescription medication without discussing with your provider. I learned my body needed sufficient time to reset after weaning off prescriptions before slowly adding in any supplements. My notes of “caused anxiety” were a much more uncomfortable experience than two words imply and took several days to undo by stopping all supplements and then later adding back in the ones that appeared safe for me personally.
