I think it's because it looks entertaining. <br /><br />Rachel: I never heard of the MRHFR mutation. Fascinating!

Folic acid is ok for many people but it is strongly advised that whoever has one or two MTHFR mutations should avoid the synthetic forms of folic acid, and instead take methylated folate (the format native to your body). Folic acid is much faster absorbed by your body and it has to work extra hard to convert it to methylated folate, and the methylation process for someone with MTHFR is severely limited. So stick with real folate found in good grains, produce -- and if you must supplement, take a methylated folate supplement.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07883935987415838616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017927177231080668.post-70694046659062708172015-09-18T03:07:47.832-04:002015-09-18T03:07:47.832-04:00Very interesting book that I'm currently readi...Very interesting book that I'm currently reading that you might appreciate:<br /><br />www.amazon.com/Its-Not-About-Broccoli-Lifetime/dp/0399164189Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
