Day seventeen of Rebuilding Your Temple Immune System! Today let’s talk about methylation—the biochemical process that happens in every single cell in the body. Let’s talk about why it’s important, the materials needed to methylate, how it relates to viruses, and what can hinder the process. We’ll discuss Vitamin B9 (folate or folic acid) which is “methylation fuel”… the question is: can your body break it down as USEABLE fuel? Vitamin B12 is also an important part of the methylation process… but can your body break that down, too? The answer is in your genes. Having an MTHFR genetic mutation can prohibit this breakdown and effect how much of these vitamins are available for the methylation process. But don’t worry you’re not doomed if you have mutations. Find out how to assist methylation — even with multiple mutations.
