What is Methylation?

Methylation is like converting raw materials into usable forms, driving almost every biochemical reaction within our cells, occurring billions of times per second.

This process is essential for many bodily functions, including gene expression, energy production, fat metabolism, immune function, detoxification, and neurotransmitter balance. Factors like DNA, diet, toxin exposure, and stress influence methylation.

Genetic mutations, such as in the MTHFR gene, or deficiencies in key dietary cofactors can disrupt methylation, reducing the body’s ability to process nutrients efficiently. This can contribute to chronic conditions like weakened immunity, fatigue, cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders, cancers, and mood disorders.
