High homocysteine could be the missing link in your heart health… ❤️🧬
We unpack how MTHFR gene variants impact cardiovascular health by impairing the conversion of folate into its active form (5-MTHF), leading to elevated homocysteine — an inflammatory amino acid that can damage the endothelium and increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, hypertension, and blood clots. Even with adequate B6, B9, and B12 intake, impaired methylation can prevent proper homocysteine clearance — which is why testing and targeted support matter.
