Why do I need methylated B Vitamins?

Some search terms matched

Many vitamins and minerals go through the methylation cycle meaning a methyl group is added to a molecule to turn it into its active form.

Those with MTHFR specifically cannot make enough 5-MTHF, an activated form of folate, which in turn prohibits the ability to methylate other vitamins. These errors can lead to a number of cellular deficiencies which can cause chronic fatigue, anxiety, depression (BASICALLY MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE A SLUG) and

Infertility affects thousands of couples each year who struggle to find helpful advice. One common treatment recommended is In Vitro Fertilization (IVF).

To complete the treatment, couples can expect to spend roughly $12,500 (Utah IVF average) while critical infertility issues (low testosterone and sperm count from pituitary, genetic, or nutritional factors) are rarely considered. Unfortunately, more natural female infer
