Description
Thorne Methyl-Guard supports various aspects of health including heart, blood vessels, cognitive function, nerves, bones, and female reproductive health.
- This supplement was the first of its kind to focus on promoting healthy methylation and supporting homocysteine metabolism using active nutrients.
- Nutritional cofactors provided by Methyl-Guard not only help with homocysteine metabolism but also contribute to maintaining a healthy brain.
- Studies have indicated that nutrients like folic acid, vitamin B12, betaine, and pyridoxal 5′-phosphate can help regulate homocysteine levels in the blood.
- Methyl-Guard contains 400 mcg of active 5-MTHF per capsule to support individuals with enzymatic reactions that may not convert folic acid properly.
Methylation – the addition of a methyl group (CH3 – one carbon attached to three hydrogens) to another molecule – is an essential and vital biochemical process in the body involved in multiple biochemical pathways involving neurotransmitters, detoxification, cardiovascular health, eye health, muscle health, bone health, and redox balance. A number of specific nutrients are necessary for the process of methylation to occur normally.
Methylation depletion and elevated homocysteine levels are commonly observed in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. This highlights the crucial role of supporting methylation as one of the essential processes in managing this condition.
When the methylation cycle is not functioning properly, it can lead to issues with the immune system, detoxification system, healing and repair abilities, as well as the antioxidant system. This suggests that a lack of methylation may contribute to many symptoms of CFS/ME/SEID
