This is day 9 of the Anxiety Summit. Coleen Walsh Functional Nutritionist, Master Nutrition Therapist and dubbed the “methyl queen” by colleagues, is interviewed by host of the Anxiety Summit, Trudy Scott, Food Mood Expert and Nutritionist, author of The Antianxiety Food Solution.
Are Your Genes Depressing You?: MTHFR and your mood
- the Methylation Cycle overview, MTHFR and B vitamins as cofactors
- how MTHFR effects the BH4 cycle and serotonin and dopamine
- factors that disturb methylation, how to test and what to do
- epigenetics and how SNPs are not our destiny
Here is are some great words of wisdom from my interview with Coleen:
MTHFR SNPs can affect the BH4 cycle which is crucial for our neurotransmitter production
Our DNA is not set in stone! Diet and lifestyle can go a long way to change our health destiny
Coleen wanted me to share this with you: methylation pathway chart created by Dr Amy Yasko
