Should toddler be tested for mthfr if both parents are hetero positive? mom with c677t, dad with a1298c. any benefit/treatment of knwing at young age?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, beneficial...: If your child is heterozygous for both of those it is worth knowing about. It is thought by many experts that these common genetic variations (esp. C677T) increase risk of adverse reactions to vaccines so I might be cautious about giving vaccines until this is known. See https://draxe.com/mthfr-mutation/ for more info...
