Re: Can rifing causer a high Homocysteine level as a herx !

[Guest guest]

Homocysteine is chemically transformed into methionine and cysteine (similar

amino acids) with the help of folic acid, vitamin B12, and vitamin B6. This

transformation utilizes a set of mediator molecules (called enzymes) and happens

via a delicate sequence of specific steps.

Therefore, insufficient amounts of these vitamins in the body can hamper the

natural breakdown of homocysteine. In addition, if there are any deficiencies in

the mediator molecules, the breakdown is also hampered. This can cause

homocysteine to accumulate
