Do you wonder why some patients improve while others do not? Why do so many patients experience such difficult Herxheimer reactions? Why can some patients not overcome detoxification challenges? Matthew Pratt-Hyatt, PhD Think Methylation. Dysfunctional methylation impairs the body’s detoxification process, and it may be the answer to the aforementioned questions. Beyond methylation genetics, many Nicole Bijslma, ND, LAc otherwise “healthy” patients experience methylation issues. This widespread problem is a result of the environmental impact on our methylation pathways, and it impacts a significant number of your patients and the general population. Whatever the cause(s), understanding why it is happening AND how to fix it is essential. Effective treatment goes way beyond just adding methylated B vitamins.
