MTHFR Tests
You can only know for certain if
you have this MTHFR mutation with blood or
saliva testing, which is done only once in a lifetime.
Labs
that test for MTHFR with blood or saliva look at your unique DNA sequence to determine if one or
both copies of your genes have a mutation at a specific location in a specific
gene.
These labs tests are available
directly as listed below:
1.
23 and Me Test: https://www.23andme.com/
- Sample: Saliva and Cheek
Swab (for infants and young children)
-

- Turnaround time: 6 to 8
weeks but may take longer due to volume
- Price: $99 for first test
and 20% discount for additional tests
- Tests for MTHFR A1298C
and MTHFR C677T and various other MTHFR snps PLUS numerous other genetic
polymorphisms
-
International
availability for many countries

Note:
23andMe.com saves close to
a million pieces of genetic data from your DNA. The test is easy, and
there is no doctor needed.
Just go to 23andMe.com,
order a kit, spit in a tube, and they run your DNA through their lab. This
company has a database of over 400,000 people and provides comprehensives

the FDA, 23andMe.com is not
currently able to provide health-related related data. However, they

Methods to Analyze Your
www.23andMe.com MTHFR and Genetic
Raw Data Test Results:
-
Genetic Genie:
Once you get the analysis from 23andMe, you can UPLOAD it to
GeneticGenie.org for a free
(donations are accepted). This website automates a methylation gene analysis just by reading your
23andMe raw data. Simply click on the
Methylation Analysis
tab, upload your www.23andMe.com data, and you’ll receive your results.
-
The Livewello Gene App:
Once you
get the analysis from 23andMe, you can UPLOAD it to
www.livewello.com to free
for a detailed report. The Livewello Gene App is a Variance Report
Software that will run your 23andMe Genome, and generates your Phenotype
for an unlimited number of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs).
To use the App
they can go to:
Livewello.com/23andMe
How To Use the App (No need to Download raw Data, App will do
it automatically): https://vimeo.com/83797705

Sterling's App:
Another option for support is
Sterling’s App.
Each report costs $20.00.
This helps you better understand your 23andMe results. They offer an
extensive chart for your SNPs (Single-nucleotide polymorphism) that you and
your health practitioner can further investigate to setup an
individual-based treatment plan. These
reports are "the most comprehensive and accurate available", containing
sections on eye health, detox, tongue tie/cleft palate, methylation,
allergy/mold, IgE, IgA, IgG, clotting disorders, thyroid, celiacs/gluten
intolerance, mitochondrial function and sulfonotransferase genes.

of Treating Genetic Mutations
-
SHMT mutation if present
-
then
ACAT if present
-
then
CBS mutation if present
(gold) at the top of the transulphuration pathway.
This results in too
much homocysteine and everything downstream is short of ingredients to do
it's functions. Producing too much ammonia and too much taurine is a
problem.

Next comes
NOS (blue) mutation if
present
