Hi everyone!
I have just received my 23andme results a few days ago and here is my result:
COMT V158M ++
COMT H62H ++
VDR Taq ++
MTHFR A1298C +-
MTRR A66G +-
CBS 699T +-
SHTM1 C1420T ++
So far I have learned that I have low COMT activity and a problem with Vitamin D (VDR Taq).
The COMT++ result is quite interesting for me because I think the description of the "worrier" type fits me quite well. The last year has been very stressful, and I experienced severe cognitive issues (weak short-term memory and impaired learning) along with a lot of anxiety.
I am a bit overwhelmed and don't really know where to start, so far I read Dr. Amy Yasko's guide and several articles online to see what I need to do.
I want to start taking the following supplements:
- Vitamin D
- Vitamin B12 (Hydroxocobalamin, Adenosylcobalamin) + B-Complex
- L-Methyl-Folate (L-5-MTHF)
- TMG / Betaine
- NAC
- DIM or I3C (reduce estrogen)
- Lithium Orotate (reduce neurotransmitters)
I also take the following already: Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Fish Oil, Magnesium, Zinc, Selenium, and Creatine.
Do you think this is a good idea? Or should I change something?
I mainly want to increase COMT and decrease estrogen and homocysteine.
I have no idea how my other mutations besides COMT, MTHFR, and VDR affect my health. If anybody knows something about the other genes that would be great too
Thanks a lot for your advice!
