Homocysteine Nutrients, 60 Capsules
Product Description: Supplement Quatrefolic® MecobalActive® Health Products. Believe in Better™ Homocysteine Nutrients help maintain healthy homocysteine levels. Seeking Health’s Homocysteine Nutrients provide bioactive forms of four essential B vitamins along with Betaine (trimethylglycine). These nutrients work synergistically to promote healthy methylation and homocysteine metabolism. Methylation is a vital process that occurs in the body and is involved in many essential biochemical processes, including gene expression and the breakdown of homocysteine. More than 50% of the population has a mutation in the MTHFR gene, which can slow down the rate of methylation in the body. And when the methylation cycle is delayed, homocysteine levels can be high. This is because proper methylation is needed to break down and remove homocysteine. Several studies have shown that high homocysteine levels increase the risk of heart and blood vessel disease. Above all, homocysteine increases the risk of cardiovascular disease by damaging the inner lining of the arteries and promoting excessive blood clotting. Elevated homocysteine levels have also been shown to affect cognitive function and brain disease. Proper neurotransmitter metabolism also depends on maintaining optimal methylation function. In order for homocysteine to be broken down, enzymes in the methylation pathway must function properly. In order for the enzymes to function effectively, specific nutrients called “coenzymes” are needed. Homocysteine nutritional supplements provide coenzymes, which are nutrients necessary for the function of methylation enzymes. Nutrients in their bioactive form (listed in parentheses) are readily absorbed and utilized by the body. Folic acid (l-5-methylfolate) Vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin, adenosylcobalamin) Vitamin B6 (P-5-P) Vitamin B2 (riboflavin-5-phosphate) Betaine (TMG) These nutrients provide the methyl groups and coenzymes required for the entire methylation pathway, and help the body naturally break down homocysteine by promoting methylation reactions.
