Methylation imbalance, often caused by the MTHFR gene mutation, by folic acid excess, or by nutritional deficiencies, shows itself in several personality traits. Some personality traits are common to people with methylation dysfunction, like perfectionism, OCD-tendencies, anxiety, hyper-focus or hypo-focus, and others. These common traits emerge in each methylation archetype pattern in slightly different ways, and by using your personality to determine your methylation archetype, you can benefit by getting general guidelines about supplements and even prescription medications that might work for you.

I have used the terms over methylator and undermethylation in the past to help categorize people to streamline their supplement start with MTHFR or other methylation imbalance, but the terms themselves can be confusing and misleading because they imply a biochemical state that isn't actually there. Logically, it makes sense that an undermethylator would be globally undermethylating things, but that doesn't bear out in reality, and part of that is because these terms (over- and under-methylator) were coined well before we had as much knowledge about the actual biochemistry and genetics linked to it as we do now. Categorizing people in this way does still have some uesful aspects because many of the traits we see in people with methylation imbalance that are used to determine over and under-methylators, still point to some predictable medication reactions, supplement guidelines and other useful information. So how do we keep the good without keeping the names? Tune in next episode because we'll be talking about a new way of looking at this. Methylation Archetypes.

She breaks down the considerations for symptom management and potential risks, particularly regarding tumors and blood labs. In this episode of 'To Health With That,' naturopathic doctor Amy Neuzil discusses the complexities surrounding methylfolate dosing for individuals with MTHFR. High doses of methylfolate could come with some of the same risks as high-dose folic acid, so it's essential to find the right dose for you without overdoing it. The three factors to consider are symptom management, potential risks, and serum folate levels. She breaks down the considerations for symptom management, potential risks, particularly regarding tumors, and blood labs. Amy also shares her own methylfolate regime and emphasizes the importance of personalized care and listening to one’s body. 00:00 Introduction 00:31 Introduction to Folate Toxicity 01:25 Considerations for Methylfolate Dosing 01:56 Symptom Management 02:27 Risks of High Folate Doses 02:42 Blood Testing Guidelines 03:40 Personal Methylfolate Regime 05:34 Importance of Personalized Care

Folate is a great thing - it's vitamin B9 and your body needs it to make new cells, replicate DNA, and so much more. But there are risks of too much folate, so how much folic acid is too much? And how dangerous is it to take high dose folic acid over time? The research exists for high dose folic acid, but what about L-5MTHF, or methyl folate? Does high dose methyl folate have the same risks as high dose folic acid?

We have so many questions, and very few definitive answers, but there is lots of information that we do have.

This episode of the To Health With That! podcast will cover the risks of high dose folic acid, the risks of high dose methyl folate, the risks of high dose L-5MTHF, and what we do and don't know from the research.

In Season 4, Episode 21 of the To Health With That podcast, naturopathic doctor Amy Neuzil discusses strategies to combat fatigue by focusing on adrenal health. The episode covers the concept of adrenal fatigue, identifying it in various phases, and introduces a holistic approach to healing the adrenals, emphasizing the role of supplements such as Vitamin C, Magnesium, B Vitamins, and melatonin, along with a special focus on adaptogens like Siberian ginseng, ashwagandha, and holy basil. Neuzil stresses the importance of incorporating these supplements alongside necessary lifestyle changes to prevent the eventual collapse of adrenal health. Additionally, fat-soluble antioxidants are highlighted as beneficial for individuals experiencing adrenal fatigue. The episode serves as a comprehensive guide to understanding and managing adrenal fatigue, but Neuzil reminds listeners to consult healthcare professionals before starting any medical regimen and acknowledges the recovery process is a slow, diligent journey akin to the duration of time taken to develop adrenal fatigue.

In season four of the 'To Health With That' podcast, hosted by naturopathic doctor Amy Noozle, the focus shifts to understanding and combating fatigue, with a specific emphasis on adrenal fatigue. This episode discusses the importance of healing your adrenals from phase two (tired but wired) or phase three (burning down) without the immediate use of adrenal hormones or supplements, reserving such treatments for more severe cases. Doctor Neuzil emphasizes lifestyle changes as a crucial step towards adrenal recovery, advocating for consistent sleep schedules, reducing screen time before bed, ensuring exposure to bright light in the morning, and adjusting dietary habits to support adrenal health. The significance of mindset and doing less than one is capable of to avoid further stress on the adrenals is highlighted as the hardest yet most vital part of recovery. The episode promises to cover supplements in the following installment.
