Can some metabolic one-carbon cycle linked diseases be prevented? The impact of treating hypo-fertile couples carrying MTHFR SNPs with folic acid and 5-MTHF on outcomes in the offspring: a case retrospective series.

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: In our practice, testing hypo-fertile patients for circulating homocysteine (Hcy) and the two principal MTHFR SNPs (677C > T and 1298A > C) has been routine for the past 7 years. Couples carrying a genetic background known to be associated with the disease were proposed treatment regimens consisting of 5-methyl tetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) together with nutritional support of the one-carbon cycle (1-CC)....
