MTHFR Check

Discover Your Genetic Blueprint with the MTHFR Gene Test

Unlock vital insights into your health with the MTHFR Gene Test. As much as half of the population may carry an MTHFR gene mutation, which can contribute to anxiety, insomnia, fatigue, and depression. This simple cheek swab test will reveal if you have one of the common MTHFR mutations, providing you with essential information to optimize your health.

What is an MTHFR Mutation?

The MTHFR gene is responsible for producing the MTHFR enzyme, crucial for activating folate in the body. Folate is essential for:

• Cell Division: Vital for growth and development.
• Heart Function: Supports cardiovascular health.
• DNA Synthesis: Necessary for genetic material creation.
• Brain Function and Memory: Enhances cognitive functions.
• Homocysteine Conversion: Converts homocysteine to methionine for metabolism and muscle growth.
• Methylation Process: Detoxifies the body.

An MTHFR gene test identifies defects in the MTHFR gene that can cause high levels of homocysteine, linked to cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, glaucoma, ischemic stroke, and atherosclerosis. Research also connects migraines and depression to inadequate methylation due to MTHFR gene variants.

MTHFR Mutations Tested

Our test examines two common MTHFR variants: C677T and A1298C. Individuals can inherit one or both variants, affecting the MTHFR enzyme activity and leading to a buildup of homocysteine in the blood.

Test Details

• C677T Mutation: Identifies if you have two copies of C677T or one copy of C677T and one of A1298C.
• A1298C Mutation: Identifies if you have the A1298C mutation affecting enzyme activity.

Comprehensive Analysis and Personalized Plan

Our Health Practioners will interpret your test results, providing a detailed analysis and a personalized plan. This includes:

• Supplementation Guidance: Recommendations for vitamins and nutrients to support folate metabolism.
• Dietary Adjustments: Tailored advice on dietary changes to enhance methylation.
• Lifestyle Modifications: Suggestions for lifestyle adjustments to manage and reduce homocysteine levels.

Benefits:

• Simple Cheek Swab: Easy and non-invasive sample collection.
• Detailed Report: Comprehensive analysis of your genetic mutations.
• Personalized Plan: Customized recommendations to improve your health.
