👉 Comment “HEALTHY” for my pregnancy folate picks 🤰💚

If you want to bring a healthy baby to full term, folate is non-negotiable.
Not just any folate … the bio-identical form your body (and your baby) can actually use. 🧬✨

If your body converts folate easily, great.
But a huge percentage of people have MTHFR, which makes that conversion harder.

And when you’re growing a baby, you don’t want bottlenecks upstream.
You want the form that’s ready to go. 💡

That’s why I personally use — and chose to make — L-methylfolate.
And not just any version… the purest one I could possibly find.

Because I put this in my body.
And I know how badly things can go when ingredients aren’t clean. 😬

The methylfolate we make is:
❌ not folic acid
❌ not diluted with fillers or water
❌ not contaminated with heavy metals

Over 80% of what’s in each tablet is free, active L-methylfolate … the form your body recognizes and can use immediately. 🌱

Is it more expensive to make?
Yes.

But pregnancy isn’t the place for “good enough.”
Purity matters … for you and your baby. 🤍

Especially if you’re:
🧬 dealing with MTHFR
🤰 trying to conceive or already pregnant
🌿 sensitive to supplements
😣 tired of reacting to low-quality vitamins

So… your SSRIs don’t work? ❌🧠

If antidepressants haven’t helped you the way you hoped, it doesn’t automatically mean they “don’t work” for you.

Most antidepressants (like SSRIs) work by helping serotonin stay in the brain longer 🧠
But they don’t help your body make serotonin.

So if serotonin production is already low… there isn’t much for the medication to work with.

This is where methylfolate can matter. 💡
Folate (specifically methylfolate) is involved in the steps your body uses to produce serotonin.

And if MTHFR is part of your picture 🧬, that conversion can be less efficient … which may limit serotonin production upstream.

That’s why, for some people, this combo helps:
🧩 methylfolate → supports serotonin production
🔒 SSRI → helps serotonin stay around longer

⚠️ Important nuance:
Adding methylfolate on top of antidepressants should always be gradual and individualized. Serotonin can rise faster than expected, so start low and go slow.

I hope this helped make things click. 💚

😖 Feeling OFF on methylfolate?

This can be a sign of over-methylation, which usually happens when too much methylfolate and/or methyl B12 is introduced too fast, especially if you’re sensitive. 🧬

Common signs 👀
😣 anxiety or irritability
😵‍💫 feeling wired or overstimulated
😴 insomnia
💓 heart racing
🤒 flu-like aches or deep fatigue

👉 Important reassurance
These reactions are usually temporary.
B vitamins are water-soluble, meaning excess amounts are eventually flushed out. 💧

If this happens, here’s what can help ⬇️

1️⃣
🛑 Pause the methylated nutrients
Especially methylfolate + methylcobalamin.
Give your body a few days to calm down.

2️⃣
🍃 Support detox + calming pathways
👉 NAC (N-Acetyl Cysteine) can help. Take ~600–3,000 mg/day (based on tolerance).
👉 An alternative to NAC is Glutathione (sublingual): Take ~200–500 mg.

3️⃣
⚡ Quick calm-down option (for sensitive folks)
👉 Use Niacin in the nicotinic acid form (not niacinamide).
Take 50 mg every 30-60 minutes until symptoms subside. ⏱️

4️⃣
✨ Once things settle, you can restart … just differently:
• Much lower dose
• Slower ramp-up
• One change at a time

This is exactly why I always say:
🌱 start low
🐢 go slow
💚 listen to your body

Methylated nutrients can be incredibly helpful … they just work best when your system isn’t overwhelmed.

Now… why am I so obsessive about purity? 🤔

Because I put this in my body.
And I know how badly my body reacts when something isn’t clean. 😬⚠️

The methylfolate we make isn’t the “value” version.
It’s not designed for spraying crops 🚜
It’s designed for human absorption 🧬✨

That means:
❌ no carrier salts padding the dose
❌ no unnecessary fillers
❌ no water content 💧
❌ no heavy metals ☢️
❌ no biological contaminants 🦠

Over 80% of what’s in each tablet is free, active L-methylfolate … the form your body can actually use.

Is it more expensive to make?
Yes.

But this was never about cutting corners for me.
It was about creating the version I needed … because cheap folic acid and low-quality folate made me feel worse, not better 😞➡️😣

Especially if you’re:
🌿 sensitive to supplements
🧬 dealing with MTHFR
🤰 supporting fertility or pregnancy
😤 or just tired of reacting to “good enough” products

If you’ve ever taken methylfolate and thought
“Why do I feel worse??” … you’re not alone.

Here’s what I see all the time:

A doctor says:
👉 “Take 15 mg of methylfolate.”
(Basically the highest dose you can get.)

So people do exactly what they’re told (because why wouldn’t they?) … and end up feeling:
😣 anxious
😵‍💫 wired or overstimulated
😴 unable to sleep
🤕 headachey or irritable

And then they assume:
❌ “Methylfolate isn’t for me.”

But often… it’s not the nutrient.
It’s just too much, too fast.

👇 So here’s the approach I’ve found works best 👇

If you’re very sensitive, you don’t always want to start with methylfolate right away.
(If you’re not very sensitive, you can skip ahead.)

1️⃣👉 First, prepare the pathways
Start with a clean, non-methylated multivitamin (no B9, no B12) for a couple of weeks.

This gives your body the basic cofactors it needs, so methylfolate has somewhere to work later.

2️⃣👉 Then consider adding in NAC
Taking NAC for a couple of weeks can help boost glutathione, which often makes methylated nutrients much easier to tolerate.

Typical range: a few hundred mg up to ~2,400 mg daily, depending on tolerance.

3️⃣👉 Introduce methylfolate
Begin with 500 mcg–1 mg.

Our Methylated Multivitamin provides 1 mg per full serving (4 tablets), which makes it easy to scale down by taking fewer tablets if you’re sensitive.

👉 Stay there for 5–7 days
Give your body time to settle and show you how it feels.

👉 Increase slowly
Only go up by 500 mcg–1 mg at a time … and again, wait a full week.

At some point, you may want to add a standalone methylfolate on top of the multivitamin.
At first, even ½ a tablet can be plenty.

⚠️👉 If you feel “off”
Skip a day → then return to the last dose that felt good.

✨👉 Stop when you feel better
When your symptoms are improving and things feel more balanced (and no side effects), that’s your sweet spot.
And your sweet spot might be well below 15 mg … and that’s perfectly fine.

💡👉 Pro tip: Adding active B12 can sometimes reduce how much methylfolate your body needs.
..

So, the goal isn’t a big number.
It’s the smallest dose that actually helps. 💚

I hope this was helpful. 😉

👇 Dosing guidelines below 👇

So… if you're trying to get pregnant (or stay pregnant), here’s something I wish more people were told:

There are a few simple, foundational nutrients that can make a real difference … especially when methylation is involved.

💊 Key nutrients to consider:
• Methylfolate
• Methylcobalamin (B12)
• P5P (active B6)

These support homocysteine balance, DNA formation, hormone health, and early embryo development … all essentials for fertility.

And if you do have MTHFR, here’s a helpful guideline:

✨ Take 1–4 mg of methylfolate daily.
Lower if you don’t have MTHFR… higher if you do.

But (and this part REALLY matters)
👉 you never jump straight into the higher doses.

Start low (500 mcg–1 mg), stay for 5–7 days, and only increase if you feel good.
If a new dose feels “off,” skip a day and go back to the last dose that felt right.

Now… here’s the interesting part that many people haven’t heard of:

Some fertility clinics use Low-Dose Naltrexone (LDN) to support fertility.
LDN gently boosts your natural endorphins, which helps balance the immune system. And for some women, pairing LDN with the right nutrients was enough to finally conceive.

If you’re curious, look into ldnresearchtrust.org.

Of course, fertility is complex… stress, toxins, hormones, genetics … all of it matters. But starting with nutrients + LDN is often a gentle, low-cost first step before jumping into expensive interventions.

Now… ever wonder why you might struggle with MTHFR…
while someone else with the exact same mutation feels totally fine? 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

Here’s the real story:

🧬 Genetics load the gun…
🌍 Environment pulls the trigger.

Having an MTHFR variant doesn’t automatically mean symptoms.
It simply means your body may be more sensitive to certain stressors — like:

⚡ Chronic stress
🧪 Toxins & chemicals
🍔 Nutrient-poor diet
🤒 Illness or inflammation
🤰 Pregnancy
💊 Certain medications

That’s why two people with the same SNPs can look totally different:

• One feels tired, anxious, or inflamed 😣
• Another struggles with fertility or high homocysteine 🧬
• And someone else has zero issues at all 🙌

MTHFR isn’t a doom sentence … it’s a vulnerability, and vulnerabilities only matter when enough pressure builds.

For me, the “perfect storm” of stress + toxins + deficiencies finally caught up… and my symptoms got loud. Supporting my methylation was a major turning point. 💚

So if you’re dealing with fatigue, mood issues, detox struggles, pregnancy complications, or “mystery symptoms,” please know:

✨ You’re not broken.
✨ There IS a reason you feel this way.
✨ And you can support this pathway.

Once you understand how your folate cycle works … and how to nourish it … everything starts making a lot more sense. 🤓💡

Doctors vs Naturopaths 💥🥊

Who’s better?

These two worlds don’t always (ever?) talk to each other.

Doctors sometimes roll their eyes at naturopaths.
Naturopaths sometimes distrust doctors.
And you — the patient — are stuck in the middle, trying to figure out who to trust.

So here are my thoughts on when to go where:

Many years ago, my appendix tried to kill me.
It didn’t care about my nervous system regulation or genetic quirks like MTHFR.
It didn’t want herbs, or a juice cleanse, or even emotional processing.
It wanted OUT … fast.

And thank goodness for the surgeon who took it out before it turned me completely septic.
Western medicine saved my life that day.

That’s what it’s great at:
💥 Acute issues
🦠 Infections
🚑 Emergencies
🔪 Surgery
🤒 Diseases diagnosis

But when things get weird, when you’ve got lingering symptoms, strange reactions, or labs that look “fine” but you don’t feel fine…
Western medicine often runs out of steam.

Appointments are rushed.
You’re given a prescription before you’ve finished listing your symptoms.
And if you have sensitivities or don’t fit the “average” patient profile? Good luck.

That’s where naturopaths shine.
They spend time. They ask questions.
They look at the whole picture: symptoms, history, environment, genetics, labs, gut health, trauma, stress… all of it.

And instead of forcing the body, they nudge it.
With nutrients. Herbs. Food. Sleep. Breath. Hair & P**p tests. (haha)

They’re especially helpful for:
✨ Chronic issues
🧠 Mood imbalances
🌿 Nutrient deficiencies
🔄 Hormonal shifts
🧬 Genetic quirks like MTHFR
🤷‍♀️ “Nobody knows what’s wrong with me” stuff

But, of course, Naturopathy has its own limitations too.
Progress can be slow. Sometimes vague.
And not every treatment is backed by robust studies.
Plus, it’s not always consistent. Results can depend a lot on the practitioner.

So, both approaches have value.

Personally? I mostly lean toward naturopaths.
I’ve got weird genetics, extreme sensitivities, and a body that tends to ignore the “normal” rules.
Pharmaceuticals often hit me like a freight train. Gentle works better for me.

But that’s me. You might be different.

I hope this helps 😉

Stay healthy,
Jamie

👉 Tap here to join my newsletter for more methylation tips: https://pages.methyl-life.com/p/newsletter

If you have MTHFR (or high homocysteine), here’s something most people never hear about…
TMG.

It’s a simple nutrient … but it supports a backup methylation pathway that your body can use even when MTHFR isn’t doing its job.

Why this matters:

🧬 When methylation slows down →
homocysteine builds up →
inflammation, low energy, mood issues, cardiovascular strain.

TMG helps convert homocysteine back into methionine … kind of like unclogging the methylation “drain.”

But here’s the nuance:

• Not everyone with MTHFR has high homocysteine
• If you do, TMG can be incredibly helpful
• Typical dosage: 600–1,800 mg/day, depending on labs
• And if you’re sensitive, start low and see how you feel

⚠️ Pro tip:
Some people do better taking TMG away from methylfolate or medication.

TMG also works best alongside folate, B12, B6, and magnesium … all the core methylation nutrients.
