How to identify a nutrient deficiency
Symptom: Miscarriages or male infertility.
Possible deficiency: Folate.
The MTHFR gene directs processing of folate. A common mutation in this gene (C677T) may increase miscarriages and male infertility. Supplementing with methylated folate may help.
What to eat: Dark green vegetables, legumes, asparagus, sunflower seeds.
Supplement with: 400-600 mcg L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate daily for fertility, guided by a trained doctor (find one at mthfr.net)
