B12 Forms Ideal for Specific COMT and VDR Taq Genetics

"I had my serotonin level tested before starting a methylfolate and active B12 regimen. My result was 85, significantly low (normal range for the test was 125-185).

3 months later after taking 5 mg of L-Methylfolate and 5 mg of active B12 each day, I had my level tested again and it came back at 136 (significantly improved and within normal range).

Not only did I feel so much better (my mood was lifted), but my IBS symptoms began to melt away (much to my surprise). As I continued taking the nutrients over the next 6-9 months many things just got so much better. It really was quite an amazing transformation for me, a slow but steady healing. So don't underestimate the power of bioidentical methylfolate and B12 nutrients for not only mood improvement, but also repairing the gut.

Find your own sweet spot, where the amount of methylfolate you take makes you feel better.

It is worth noting that some people may never feel a big change like I did right away. Dr. Neil Rawlins says it may take some as many as 4 months (at a therapeutic dose - for some that is as much as 15 mg) to notice that they are actually feeling better.

Some people may just take methylfolate because it is recommended for them and reduces their homocysteine as well as disease risks (i.e. heart attack, miscarriage etc.) and helps clear toxins/metals/BPAs out of their system via glutathione boosting. These folks may not notice as much of a difference in how they 'feel', everyone's experience is unique."
