    For those who can not bear living OverMethylated.

    For those who can not bear living OverMethylated. I can suggest you consider low dose Stelazine with it. I am giving it up and I am never feel overmethylated when using it, but feel fine, like some sort of mania from B's. I guess I can handle it would have no problems. But for those who can not...

    Strong Mental Reaction to B Vitamins. What would that be?

    Hi Stridor. I had low body temperature last year. Much more than yours (33 c degrees) , in Fahrenheit terms I believe this is lower that your fahrenheit minimum degree. However my thyroid levels in lab tests are always normal. TSH, T3, T4. After understanding the temperature irregularity, I...

    Strong Mental Reaction to B Vitamins. What would that be?

    Hi Kala. No. I did not found why. I am just carefully continuing to use active B's. I can not do without them, lots of problems, but after some minimal dosage, you know, hypomania. So, I am using carefully. It's pro's are completely much more than con's.

    Dealing with side effects of Methylation - What seems to work for me.

    Cobain. There is really high level of B12 in my blood from a recent intake and this is always enough for me to have side effects and positive effects. Other than what B I take, I can not explain for various reasons.

    Dealing with side effects of Methylation - What seems to work for me.

    For all the people over here who have problems taking B Vitamins, I guess I found a solution to overcome some some "negative" symptoms associated taking them. I know there are lots of people who have problems taking Methyl B's here so I am just suggesting people to try what I do. Remember - what...

    Strong Mental Reaction to B Vitamins. What would that be?

    I guess at first look, I have no MTHFR mutation (from geneticgenie). COM-T also looks fine. MTHFR.net results are a bit more complicated, however, I guess the results of that one also might not explain my extremely strange response to Active B's (or on the other words, acting more strangely...

    Yes. My results arrived. 23 And me says it is partial yet but I guess the remaining part is for calculating ancestrial? I first used geneticgenie and MTHFR Support. Ok. Here are my results. I see that I have no MTHFR Mutation? There seems to be a ComT Mutation? Of course definitely I will...

    Hi Stridor and Picante. Thanks for the replies. Picante - I will use that link when the results arrive. My kit is on the way and I will send it back so it would take some time to get the results. Stridor, we seem to have had a similar problem (psychiatric), although using different methods...

    Strong Mental Reaction to B Vitamins. What would that be?

    Thanks for your help, Fredd. Actually I am not a Me/CFS/FMS . I guess you missed that part and made a wrong assumption that I did not have a result. However, my problem is different (psychiatric- may be I did not put that very clear in the post so just skimming the post would not give an idea)...

    cobain_justinsane Detailed reply, thank you!.. I also feel the same, this is very rare and for me, human brain being very complicated, we can not drive conclusions from a few samples. However, getting more information does not hurt and there can be benefits for me, and for all parties having...

    Strong Mental Reaction to B Vitamins. What would that be?

    Thank you Caledonia. Your hint will be useful (ComT). Every input is essential actually. May be as you say, and as I also worry, this would also be an unknown puzzle. I hope whatever it is - the end will be fine. At least I have to do my work - be educated on this topic in order to do what I do...

    Strong Mental Reaction to B Vitamins. What would that be?

    I have been testing nutritional supplements to optimize and treat some of my mental symptoms, for years. There are lots of supplements that appear to make me hypomanic, feel well etc. My brain seems to be sensitive. SSRI's make me manic too. (Prozac, etc.) However in order to simplify the...

    B-12 - The Hidden Story

    Hi!... My question is about the liver storage. I realized that when I take sublinguals, although at a higher dosage, I realized that lower dosage oral MethylB12 capsule seems to have a really higher liver storage (regular blood tests after use). Although this might be due to being a different...
