Hello all
I am going to start the methylation protocol again but this time just start on B12 first and try and get up to a high dose before starting the methylfolate. I am doing this because when trying this before I believe I have run into methyl-trap symptoms. As I have low B12 levels (low 200's). So I'd like to try upping my B12 first before starting methlfolate.
I just finished going through, A [Not so] Concise Guide to Freddd’s Protocol June 2014
In the document I noticed that there is some mention that taking low doses of B12 (500mcg) could cause problems. Also I noticed that it's mentioned that taking B12 without methylfolate could cause B12/folate deficiency, insufficiency symptoms. But, I do not understand why.
Can anybody clarify these theory's or give any insight as to taking B12 before starting methylfolate and getting B12 levels up.
I am MTHFR compound heterozygous, Mutliple homozygous MTR MTRR, MAO A, and NO COMT.
Thank you very much
