MTHFR Support Global

29/07/2025

Tired? 🥱
Cold hands? 💨
Struggling with hair loss or foggy focus? 💭🧠
You might be low in iron, but what if the issue isn’t intake… Is it absorption?

👀 Common root causes of poor iron absorption in MTHFR-sensitive people:
🥦 Low stomach acid
🔬 Gut inflammation (hello, histamine + mould!)
🧬 Methylation issues that impair iron transport

💡 Reminder: Supplementing iron without checking the root cause can backfire — especially if you’ve got MTHFR, HFE, or gut-related variants.

✨ Want to support your energy this winter?
→ Think genes, gut, and gentle detox - not just supplements.

📌 Save this for your following blood test review.

Ever felt down, foggy, or on edge, with no clear reason? 😟🧠
It might not be just life stress. Your genes could be part of the story.

🔬 MTHFR C677T is linked to reduced folate metabolism, which impacts:
➤ 🧬 Methylation
➤ 🧠 Serotonin & dopamine production
➤ 🔥 Inflammation

Mental health is multifaceted, and your genes provide clues.

💡 It’s not about blame. It’s about better support.
💛 Be gentle with yourself. Gene-smart care starts with awareness.

📌 Save this for your next low day.

Ever felt like you’re doing everything right - eating well, exercising, and sleeping - but still feel off? 😔
Mood swings, brain fog, and fatigue aren't always just "mental."

They might be linked to your methylation pathways.
If you have an MTHFR gene variant, your ability to process folate and regulate neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin may be compromised. 🧬

✨ Mindful tip:
Instead of self-blame, get curious. Your body might be asking for methylation support, not motivation hacks.

📌 Save this as a reminder:
Your biology matters. So does your compassion for it. 💛

Just found out you have MTHFR? 🤯
Please don’t panic, let’s get practical. 👇

This common gene variant affects how your body processes folate and detoxes… but it’s 100% manageable with the right steps. ✅

Here’s how to support your body (not stress it out):
🥗 Eat natural folate (hello, leafy greens!)
💊 Supplement with L-methylfolate, not folic acid
🧬 Balance homocysteine with B12, B6, and magnesium
🌬️ Support methylation with daily detox + stress relief

Because your genes are a starting point, not a sentence.
💡 Empowered wellness starts with knowledge and action.

🧠 Save this if you’ve got MTHFR, or share it with someone who needs clarity.

🤔What if your body can’t process folate properly?

You're eating your greens 🥗
You're taking a multivitamin 💊
But you still feel tired, foggy, or anxious?

👉 The issue might not be what you're taking… It might be how your body processes it.

People with MTHFR gene variants (especially C677T or A1298C) can struggle to convert folate into its active form: L-methylfolate (5-MTHF).

This matters because folate is essential for:
🧬 DNA repair
🧠 Mood and neurotransmitter balance
💥 Detox + methylation
🩺 Managing homocysteine (linked to heart health + inflammation)

When that conversion is slow or impaired, you may feel:
😴 Fatigued
😵‍💫 Mentally foggy
😟 Anxious or low
😣 Sensitive to stress or supplements

Good news?
You can work with your genes.
✅ Opt for methylated folate (5-MTHF)
✅ Reduce synthetic folic acid
✅ Prioritise real, folate-rich foods
✅ Support your detox pathways gently

🎯 Save this if you’ve ever wondered why “healthy” isn’t always enough - and stay tuned for more gene-smart wellness tips.

Do you often feel anxious, bloated, or foggy… but your blood tests don’t explain why? 🤷‍♀️🧪
You’re not imagining it.
Histamine overload, from food, mould, or both, could be hijacking your gut-brain connection. 🍷🧀🦠

Certain genes like DAO, HNMT, and MTHFR play a big role in how well your body breaks down histamine. When they don’t work well, histamine piles up and creates symptoms that feel overwhelming. 🧬⚠️

Add stress and inflammation, and your gut’s resilience takes a hit, worsening the problem. 😓🔥

👉 Remember: It’s not “just anxiety.” It’s your body’s complex chemical signals asking for attention.

Ever felt guilty for needing rest… but also too exhausted to function? 😞💤
You’re not alone, and you’re not lazy.
For those living with chronic inflammation, mould illness, or MTHFR/COMT variants, that tiredness isn't imagined — it’s biochemical. 🧬

Here’s the truth:
🔹 Fatigue can be a sign that your body’s trying to detox
🔹 Brain fog may be a sign that the nervous system is under pressure
🔹 Pushing through can delay healing

👉 The harder thing? Letting yourself rest without guilt.
🌿 Because rest is not weakness. It’s a radical act of self-respect.

📌 Save this post for the days you feel like you "should be doing more."

🧠 Your body is trying to protect you. Let it. ❤️

Sometimes “healthy” just… isn’t. 😖
Especially in winter ❄️
When your detox systems are sluggish, inflammation spikes, and mould exposure creeps in.

Here are 5 “wellness” habits that might be making genetically sensitive people feel worse:
🥤 Kombucha → Histamine overload
🏋️‍♀️ HIIT workouts → Cortisol dysregulation
🕯️ Scented candles → VOCs + neuroinflammation
🌧️ Open windows in rain → Mould exposure
😩 Pushing through fatigue → Burnout, not progress

🔁 If you’re doing all the right things and still feel foggy, inflamed, or exhausted…
It might be time to rethink what’s “healthy” for YOU.

You’ve tried the standard approaches.
🧘‍♀️ Mindfulness.
💊 SSRIs.
🛋️ CBT.
And yet… your patient is still anxious, fatigued, or overstimulated.

🧠 What if it’s not a psychological issue, but a neuroinflammatory response to mould or mycotoxins?

Here are 3 clinical clues you might be missing:
🌫️ Anxiety flares in specific buildings - especially damp, old, or newly renovated spaces
😴 Unrefreshing sleep even with melatonin, adaptogens, or solid sleep hygiene
🚫 New or increased sensitivities to perfumes, supplements, or detoxes

These are not signs of resistance. They’re signs of a body under toxic and inflammatory stress.

💡 If your patient has MTHFR, COMT, or detox variants, the burden may be more onerous to clear, especially in winter.

That bloating, anxiety, or brain fog you're blaming on food? 😣🥦 It might not just be a food intolerance...

During winter, we spend more time indoors, often in damp homes with poor ventilation. And that’s a problem, especially if you’re genetically sensitive.

Mould exposure can:
🦠 Increase intestinal permeability (aka leaky gut)
🌡️ Trigger histamine flares + immune reactivity
🧬 Affect those with DAO, HNMT, and MTHFR gene variants even more severely

When your gut and environment collide, symptoms escalate.

If your digestion crashes every winter or you get bloated after “safe” foods, your gut may be reacting to more than what’s on your plate.

🌿 You’re not overreacting, your body is just overwhelmed.

Still tired, no matter how early you go to bed? 😴🧠
You're not alone, and you're not lazy!

Here’s what might be happening behind the scenes 👇
🦠 Mould exposure, especially in winter, can silently affect your brain and body.
🧬 If you carry MTHFR or COMT gene variants, detoxing these mould toxins takes a bigger toll.
💤 The result? Exhaustion, anxiety, brain fog… even after 8 hours of sleep.

It’s not just “burnout.” Sometimes, your genes + environment are speaking louder than your habits.

Ever feel like your thoughts are buffering… like your brain won’t switch off? 🌀🧠
That’s not laziness. That’s nervous system overload. And it’s especially common in winter when sensory input spikes (hello blue light, heaters, and noisy brains).

✨ Try this 3-step mental reset tonight:
🕯 Light a candle
📵 Put your phone away 30 minutes before bed
📝 Do a brain-dump in a notebook - messy thoughts welcome

Your brain doesn’t always need more strategies. Sometimes, it just needs stillness.
Especially if you have sensitive genetics like MTHFR or COMT, overstimulation can hit harder.
