Some of us are genetically compromised. Many of us with leaky gut will have either low ferritin or high ferritin and genetics can make it a [...]

What Sterling Thinks Are The Most Important Genes On The Variant Report To Date

FVL: Factor V Leiden. When factor V is found heterozygous, the odds of FVL’s having a clotting event in their lifetime is much greater than the someone without this mutation. Factor V Leiden is sometimes called Activated Protein C Resistance because this mutation leads to protein C resistance. When pregnant, the uterus is fed with [...]

When Other Genes Are Not Functioning They Can Impact MTHFR

DAO DAO Catalyzes the degradation of compounds such as putrescine, histamine, spermine, and spermidine, substances involved in allergic and immune responses, cell proliferation, tissue differentiation, tumor formation, and possibly apoptosis. Placental DAO is thought to play a role in the regulation of the female reproductive function. www.uniprot.org DAO is calcium, copper, zinc and quinone binding. [...]
