Hi Folks,
It's been over 3 years now since I got my 23&Me results, and I'm not happy with my energy/mental state in spite of devoting a lot of time and money to what should be the appropriate supplements to address my SNP's. I'd like to know where to from here to better understand why my interventions have thus far not yielded the results I was hoping for.
After consistently taking Methylation supplements for the past 3+ years I've now been off them since mid September and am keen to find out how my body is functioning in its 'natural' state.
It seems that Organic Acid Testing in the form of a Genova NutrEval Diagnostic Panel would seem the best course of action as I really feel that RichK was onto something with that Glutathione Depletion Cycle theory about CFS, but is this the best option? Perhaps theres better testing options available now or similar but at lower prices from other providers?, or indeed one thats better for Australian residents??(eg: where will I get my blood drawn for Genova so they get a fresh sample when I'm in Australia??)
I've also taken a moment to read through Caledonia's NutrEval Interpretation guide and can't help but wonder about my ability (even as a partially university educated student in this area) to appropriately interpret the results even if I do get the test, and am considering an integrated doctor to interpret/provide advice. Does anyone know any excellent functional medicine practitioners in Sydney, Australia that appreciate the significance of methylation etc. like the rest of us???
I look forward to your suggestions,
Regards
