What’s covered:
The significance of methylation to human health has become increasingly acknowledged within healthcare practice in recent years. As a result, many practitioners have jumped at the chance to use more biochemically active and methylated forms of supplemental B vitamins within their clinical prescriptions, in an attempt to better address these newly appreciated issues.
However, this has often resulted in highly variable, and sometimes contradictory, outcomes in certain instances. In this time, the growing importance that Practitioners have placed
in this area, has also seen an increase in the use of specialised clinical testing options in order to determine current metabolic activity (and therefore make more sound clinical assessments about
ongoing patient care).
The results of this exploration have subsequently lead to increasing sophistication and nuance regarding precisely which B vitamin forms to use when writing prescriptions and support
protocols, in order to properly serve the needs of certain individual clients, for better long term clinical outcomes. A discussion of these options surrounding clinical B vitamin investigations and supplemental forms will be provided and may benefit practitioners to deepen their understanding and maximise their results as part of a more balanced and personalised approach to this important aspect of modern healthcare and practice.
