No, MTHFR isn't short form for you know what - even though it really can be one! We all have the MTHFR gene, but some of us have genetic variations or mutations. I recently found out I am one of the few who do have a mutation. But it's not all bad! Your genes are not your fate, thanks to gene expression and epigenetics. In this episode, I talk about what the MTHFR gene is involved in and what having a mutation means. It's involved in SO MANY body processes! For example, hormonal balance, birth defects, anxiety, depression, weight gain, cardiovascular disease, the list goes on. I'm glad I found out about this genetic variation so that I can do something about it. Be proactive with your health! If you've already done some sort of gene testing through 23andMe or Ancestry DNA then you're one step ahead.
