- Methylation is an area of health that has received a lot of attention lately but these issues are a lot more common than most people realize. In fact, approximately 40-60% of the population has genetic variations that affect methylation and can create a wide variety of health issues ranging from headaches to heart disease.
Today's video is part of a 2-part series on methylation. In part 1, here, we will introduce the concept of methylation, how it affects you, where things can go wrong, and how to test!

Very well presented, thank you.
You’re welcome! Thanks for the kind comment 🙂
I'm being tested in February. I was just talking about this. I appreciate this. Thanks! I'm sharing this video with him now.
Thanks for sharing it! I hope it helps 🙂
Great info & looking forward to Part 2!
Thank you. It will arrive in exactly 2 weeks :)
Great information
Thank you!
Hi Dr. Robin, I enjoyed your video's on this testing. I had the MTHFR genetic blood test done from my PCP about 4 weeks ago. I've been a wreck my whole life and I had to get this testing done. RESULT: POSITIVE FOR TWO COPIES OF THE A1298C
VARIANT. My PCP that is an MD isn't familiar with this test and told me I needed to find someone else to explain the results. I am in Arkansas and have contacted five Naturopathic doctors according to google, and they can't explain anything about the results or who could help me. What other type of doctor is knowledgeable in this area to help me figure this out so I can get my son tested?
Hey, thanks for the watch :) That’s frustrating that even the local NDs are up to date on this. I know that some chiropractors or osteopathic doctors can be knowledgeable as well, but definitely check ahead of time as many aren’t. I hope you find someone! This is such a common issue
Also, the genetic test don’t always have to come from a provider. I believe public companies like 23&me let anyone order their kits directly.
Thank you for that information, and I look forward to watching more of your videos.
Is that the " I love My Health Test" from Toronto
Yes, that’s the company.
Is part 2 out?
Not yet. It will be out Monday!
I have a genetic defect MTHFR
I’m glad you were tested! In 2 weeks I’ll have the treatment recommendations if you haven’t figured it out already ❤️
Hi dr Lewis. Did you say I love my dna? I have searched for this exact name with no match
Sorry that’s one of the panels. DNA labs is the company
Nothing new .Dr.Peter D' Adamo taught us all this since 2005..😂😁🤩🤭😏
I’m glad more videos are made of the same thing. It gets to more people
