Hello everybody here. I m new to this forum. I recently had my 23andMe results and had no idea of what supplements should i assume on the base of my results. A friend of mine told me that here there were people able to help me. I live in Italy and i'm not able to find a Dr who treat this kind of things...
These are my results:
As homoziogous:
MTHFR A1298C
VDR Bsm
MAO-A R297R
BHMT-02
BHMT-04
BHMT-08
As heterozigous:
COMT V158M
COMT H62H
ACAT1-02
MTRR A66G
MTRR A664A
SHMT1 C1420T
I don't understand if i can proceed with Metafolin and methylB12 or if i should not because of other polymorphisms... Genetic genie is not totally clear. Also i m concerned about any possible risks. Also about BH4, is it risky or not??? Some claim researches found it very safe, but i read in the ben Lynch forum of a person who got eyes hemorrhage because of BH4...
I m a possible adrenal exhaustion sufferer (did saliva test), and possible leaky gut. Long time depression sufferer, and since some years i suffer of fatigue and lethargy. I never had benefits from antidepressants.
Last year i followed a theraphy of supplements: B6 200mg, folic acid 2.5 mg, b12 2000mcg, magnesium 800mg, zinc 50 mg, fish oil and flax seed oil. All without benefit. Instead i got a long (5 monthes) mild fever, but i can not be sure it was related to supplements. I recently found out that VitC helps me with fatigue/lethargy, but just 250 mg x day, if i take 500 mg or more i got sleep problems...
