MTHFR Support
The methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene contains the DNA code to produce the MTHFR enzyme.
MTHFR is an enzyme required to convert folic acid into L-methylfolate. It is also part of the process that converts homocysteine into methionine, an important building block for many proteins.
The MTHFR gene defect inhibits this metabolic pathway and prevents our cells from getting the methylfolate they need.
Obtaining folate from a wide variety of wholefoods is a wise choice. Beef liver, leafy greens, cruciferous vegetables, legumes and citrus fruits offer considerable amounts of folate that the body can readily absorb and utilise.
Foraged For You - The Mothers Blend includes beef liver, fermented red lentils, broccoli and spinach, all providing safe and nourishing sources of food-based folate.
