Optimize Your Methylation: A Key to Better Health
Are you concerned that your body may not be efficiently processing essential nutrients like folate, vitamin B12, and choline? Could genetic variations be hindering your energy levels, brain function, or detoxification pathways? Are you at risk of imbalances that impact cardiovascular health, mental well-being, or inflammation? A genetic methylation test can help uncover how your body processes these critical nutrients and reveal where support may be needed to optimize your health.
Understanding Methylation
Your Methylation Pathways Genetic Report, based on a specialized DNA test, reveals the genetic factors influencing these vital biochemical processes. Methylation is essential for:
- Detoxification
- Hormone regulation
- Neurotransmitter synthesis
- Energy production
- Inflammation control
- Homocysteine metabolism
- Protein methylation
- Liver detoxification
- Immune system support
- DNA repair
Methylation is crucial in understanding autoimmune and neurological disorders, such as multiple sclerosis, seizure disorders, dementia, chronic fatigue syndrome, lupus, depression, anxiety, and autism spectrum disorders. While this complex process occurs in every cell, as well as in brain fluids and the liver, it impacts many vital bodily functions.
The Importance of Healthy Methylation
When methylation is impaired, it can contribute to birth defects, depression, cognitive decline, and even cancer. Research has also linked inadequate methylation to autism. Supporting methylation pathways has been associated with improvements in speech development, behavior, and attention-related disorders like ADD and ADHD.
Personalized Insights and Recommendations
With this report, you’ll gain personalized insights into how your genes impact methylation and receive clear, actionable recommendations on:
- Dietary strategies: Optimize your intake of methylation-supporting nutrients like folate, vitamin B6, and B12.
- Supplement recommendations: Understand which vitamins, minerals, and cofactors may help improve your methylation function.
- Lifestyle adjustments: Learn how environmental factors, stress, and toxins influence your genetic pathways and how to mitigate risks.
Key Methylation Cycles
This report evaluates your overall methylation capacity and outlines three key cycles within a single Methylation Pathway Diagram:
- Folate Cycle: CUBN, DHFR, FOLH1, FUT2, MTHFD1, MTHFD1L, MTHFR, MTHFS, MTR, MTRR, SHMT1, TCN2, TYMS
- Methionine Cycle: AHCY, BHMT, CHDH, COMT, DNMT3B, GNMT, MAT1A, PEMT
- Transsulfuration: CBS, PDXK

Jule
With a background of unexplained mood swings and depression, this report was a turning point. It outlined how variations in my DHFR and PRDX1 genes might impact my folate metabolism. The actionable advice to adjust my diet and supplement with methylfolate and antioxidants has profoundly improved my mental well being. The detailed but accessible explanations turned confusing science into clear guidance.
Marius
Dealing with anxiety for years, the report’s analysis of my COMT Val158Met variant was eye opening. It explained why I metabolize stress hormones differently and gave specific recommendations, including magnesium supplementation and lifestyle adjustments. Since following these, I’ve experienced calmer moods and better stress management. As a 29 year old graphic designer, this personalized insight was invaluable.
Natasha
As a mom of two with a family history of cardiovascular issues, I wanted to be proactive. This Methylation Pathway report illuminated my MTHFR and MTRR variants and their implications for homocysteine metabolism. The clear supplement and diet suggestions helped me start a regimen with methylfolate and betaine. I now feel confident I’m reducing my risk factors and setting a healthy example for my kids.
Catherine
I’ve struggled with chronic fatigue for years and always suspected a genetic component. This report highlighted my CBS gene variant and explained why sulfur containing foods triggered symptoms. The personalized advice to moderate my intake and increase B6 (PLP) support has made a noticeable difference in my energy. I’m a 42 year old teacher, and this report gave me practical steps that my doctor and I could implement immediately.
Lynette
As a 35 year old biohacker, I was thrilled to receive the Methylation Pathway report. It provided an intricate analysis of my MTHFR C677T and MTR variants, clearly outlining how these affect my ability to process folate and B12. The report’s recommendations for supplementing with methylfolate and adenosyl cobalamin have significantly enhanced my mental clarity and endurance during workouts. The visual methylation pathway made complex genetics understandable and actionable.
