High-protein diets can pose risks for those with MTHFR gene variants like C677T or A1298C, which impair homocysteine metabolism, leading to elevated levels (hyperhomocysteinemia). This buildup increases risks of heart disease, stroke, blood clots, fatigue, cognitive decline, and accelerated aging. The MTHFR gene affects folate metabolism, crucial for converting homocysteine to methionine. High methionine from […]
