What Is MTHFR?


There’s a lot of awareness around this genetic mutation, and that’s great. It’s a big reason why so many people are chronically sick.

When the MTHFR gene mutations are present, your methylation pathways don’t work very well, which means you struggle to detox.

So a lot of people will test positive for this, and then following orders from their Functional Medicine Doctor (or their own research) they’ll start taking B12 and methyl folate.

But, this is a mistake. You must first open your drainage pathways, and then remove the other underlying causes like parasites, mold, and so on. Then you’re ready to add B12 and methyl folate.

Why? Well, if you ask your body to start trying to move out metals and chemicals when your drainage pathways aren’t open, then you’ll end up stirring them up from wherever your body has been able to wall them off, then you can’t move them out, so they’ll resettle and cause even more issues.

But if you’ve opened your drainage pathways and moved out the other blockages like parasites, then your body will easily move out the metals and chemicals and other toxins!

Chiropractic And Injury Prevention

As research performed in the last few decades has shown, Chiropractic is known to change & improve various aspects of nervous system function, including motor control, brain reaction times, and brain cognitive processing (the speed with which our brain processes information). So, it makes sense that if any of these areas are lacking then you should be at greater risk for injury, especially when we are talking low back injuries (due to how important brain control is over the vitally important spinal muscles). We know that if you can’t activate your trunk and core muscles before rapidly moving an arm, this can potentially result in a strain or sprain of the low back. This is known as the feed forward mechanism - if our spine doesn't first stabilize properly before we move our limbs then we greatly increase our risk of injury at the spinal level. These injuries usually start as microscopic injuries that we don't even notice but like everything else they continue to b
