This write-up provides a brief explanation of the MTHFR mutation and explores what implications it may have for your health and what dietary changes you can make if you have the MTHFR gene mutation.

 
MTHFR, short for Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase, is a vital enzyme in the body. It's essential for the process of methylation to occur. Methylation is a metabolic process that builds and repairs DNA & RNA, produces neurotransmitters, produces important nutrients for energy, reduces histamine, makes phosphatidylcholine and is involved in liver detoxification pathways. MTHFR is essential for the conversion of folate from food into the active form 5-methyletetrahydrofolate (methylfoate) which is the bio-active form the body uses for methylation.
