10 Undermethylation Myths (MTHFR, Brain Health & The Great Folate Debate)

70% of those with mental illness have a methylation imbalance

In this episode, I answer:

  • What is MTHFR and more specifically undermethylation (UM)?

  • What is the incidence of (UM) in various brain disorders, including depression?

  • How is it diagnosed?

  • How common are MTHFR variants?

  • Does having an MTHFR variant mean you have UM?

  • Is folate good for everyone? Who is it not good for?

  • Where do we get folate?

  • What are the concerns about high folate throughout an entire pregnancy?

  • Has there been an increase in UM?
