This report overview covers hair shedding, the hair-growth cycle, telogen effluvium, nutrient deficiencies, and the author’s proposed explanations for changes during supplementation.
You eat something sweet.
Your energy shoots up.
Then suddenly you are exhausted, foggy, irritable, and reaching for something else to get you through the day.
That cycle deserves a closer look.
MTHFR variants can influence folate meta
Dr. Purser explains the diagnosis and treatment of MTHFR (methylenteterahydrofolate reductase enzyme deficiency disease). Learn the genetic component of this illness (such as C677T or A1298C) and how it affects the body's inability of methylation to convert carbohydrates into ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate). Discover how the complex enzyme pathways of the Krebs cycle and citric acid cycle convert carbohydrate molecules into ATP molecules in the mitochondria. Explore the relationship of MTHFR to vitamin and hormone deficiencies while understanding how vitamin supplements can replace key missing (u

TMG (trimethylglycine) can sometimes lower homocysteine—but only if it’s not caused by genetics. When homocysteine is high from genetic SNPs, TMG won’t fix it, and restrictive “low-methionine diets” are both harmful and outdated. The real solution lies in addressing deficiencies and genetics directly.

🚨 High homocysteine isn’t just a lab number—it’s a warning sign.
Genes like MTHFR, MTR, MTRR, and GGH can overactivate the methylation cycle and lead to hyperhomocysteinemia, which drives inflammation, stroke risk, and even kidney failure.
If your transsulfuration pathway is off, it’s not just genetics—deficiencies in B6, glutathione, glycine, serine, glutamine, or methionine can block it too. 🧬 Without these, you can’t convert homocysteine to glutathione, leading to inflamma
If you have MTHFR gene mutations like C677T or A1298C, you’re likely low in more than just B12 and folate. 🧬 We consistently see deficiencies in B6 (pyridoxine), glutamine, glutathione, and sometimes methionine—all key players in energy, de
What is MTHFR and what can be done about it? At its root, the MTHFR genetic SNP causes a lack of energy in your cells and throughout your entire body. Filling the holes of the methylation cycle make up for this loss of energy. MTHFR Daily i
If you’ve been told you have the MTRR gene mutation and struggle with fatigue, depression, or high homocysteine, this might be your missing link. MTRR mutations can impair your body’s ability to make SAMe (S-adenosyl methionine)—a critical
What is MTHFR? How does MTHFR effect you? It causes an overall sense of exhaustion due to the lack of folate and other key B vitamins and nutrients. If you can fill the holes of the methylation cycle, your cells can operate “normally.”
There are several deficiencies I see again and again with my MTHFR patients, and it gets bad.
B12, Folate, B6, Glutamine, Glutathione, and methionine. Treat these and make your bad MTHFR go away.
Best match puts all-term matches before partial matches and related reading. Identical social posts and matching long titles across other sources are grouped when access is the same. Search covers published titles, descriptions, available article text, report overviews, and the full text of the nutrient, gene and learning-essential reference pages. Books, uploaded chapters and downloads-page reports are searchable through selected editorial guides and topic names; the original files and full book text are not published.
