What is MTHFR Gene Mutation?
MTHFR Gene mutation cannot process Vitamin B9 (folate) efficiently. Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) is an enzyme needed in the process of breaking down folate (Vitamin B9) and homocysteine for the body. In addition, individuals with mutations in the MTHFR gene often have elevated levels of homocysteine in their blood. This is related to a deficiency of folic acid (folate or Vitamin B9) and is connected to increased risk of heart disease. If the body is deficient of Vitamin B9, an important vitamin, the body is more at high risk to develop the life threating diseases and serious health conditions.
