Don't freak out!: These genetic variations (or polymorphisms) are very common. We're still learning about their effects on health. 2 copies of c677t is more of an issue but the a1298c may not be too bad. Your homocysteine is normal. If you enjoy good health you will probably have no problem. You might take the L-5-MTHF form of folate (folic acid) as a precaution. See http://tinyurl.com/k6xo6xe & http://tinyurl.com/kwcwqcx
