If you are talking about 23andMe, they also provide methylation DNA errors, which can be critical for patients, because poor methylation leads to nerve damage eventually, as well as cancer and heart attacks.
B12, and folic acid have to be methylated in the body in order to work at the biological tasks that require them. If one has the MTHFR mutation, this cannot work, and therefore the person deteriorates slowly.
Several of our PNers here have had this test, and all so far showed methylation mutations.
To minimize this error, taking methylcobalamin for the B12 and methylfolate for your folate will bypass the error, and restore biological systems. These both are available OTC.
