Homocysteine, is a non protein amino acid in the blood produced by your body. Elevated Homocysteine levels(H levels) are an inflammation marker. Your H level is the best single indicator of whether you are going to live a long and healthy life. A high H level is a greater risk factor for heart disease than cholesterol. High Homocysteine has been directly linked to over 100 diseases. It is therefore not a big surprise to find that people with autoimmune diseases like Ulcerative Colitis are more likely to have a high H level.
Homocysteine arises during a process called Methylation in the body, Homocysteine itself isn’t bad – your body turns it into two beneficial substances Glutathione which is an antioxidant and SAMe which is a nutrient used in the brain and body, the trouble is that if you are low on B vitamins the enzymes which convert Homocysteine into these beneficial substances don’t function efficiently. This can lead to elevated H levels in the blood which is bad. The good news is that is it relatively easy to reduce H Levels in a matter of weeks by supplementing with B vitamins, trimethyl glycine and zinc. The Vitamins required to reduce H Levels are –
- Folate
- B12
- B6
- B2
- Zinc
- TMG
A combination of the above vitamins taken will rapidly reduce excessive H Levels in a matter of weeks, which will in turn help reduce inflammation in the body, which will help with Ulcerative Colitis. You can get a test to measure Homocysteine levels here.
