[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Folate poster here. Not a scientist here but I thought the whole thing was related to a specific MTHR gene variant that causes a problem with folate metabolism. Taking the above mentioned type of folate can be beneficial to some with autism and other MTHR associated conditions but is not a cure. Is this correct? Just a curious person who is trying to understand and no longer knows where to get unbiased information. [/quote] Not mthfr. Its an autoimmune condition called folate receptor alpha auto antibodies. This is one of the major causes of cerebral folate deficiency. There are 2 variants along the mthfr gene that can cause clinically significant folate deficiency, but the treatment for that is generally just 5mthfr, or methylfolate. [/quote]
