What are the possible side effects for someone who has a dirty MTHFR gene/ gene mutation?Updated 4 months ago
MTHFR gene mutations may lead to less methylation in your body. Less methylation means that a variety of complex biochemical processes can be altered over time, leading to health problems.
Since everyone is unique, (for example family history, lifestyle, diet etc..) symptoms arising from MTHFR mutations vary from person to person.
Some specific conditions that have been proposed to be associated with MTHFR may include:
Chronic inflammation
Chronic fatigue
Dizziness
Hives
Headaches
Allergies
Eczema
Asthma
Heightened reaction to allergens
Decreased immune function
High Homocysteine levels
Difficulties conceiving
Low B12
Mental Health issues
Difficulty sleeping/insomnia
Seeking Health cannot suggest, treat, or diagnose. Since there are many other factors involved, it is best to work with a qualified healthcare professional to determine your methylation/MTHFR status.
