Funked Up MTHFRs is a hilarious, pearl clutching examination of those hard truths that set us free for the MTHFR Exodus for the Rest of Us from systems we were never supposed to be in.  We know it's the world's worst name for a faith-based podcast, but give it a chance - and see what you learn. We will discuss politics, history, religion/faith-based concepts, as well as science topics surrounding the MTHFR genetic polymorphism and others associated with DNA methylation, folate metabolism & glutathione production. We will explain these tiny biological systems and how they impact Autism Spectrum Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder, Addiction, ADD/ADHD/AuDHD, Cardiovascular issues & autoimmune diseases.

    Episode 3: Wanna Be Startin' Something

    Our story expands the events of 1999. Once again, we head off in the time machine, this time with the help of Michael Jackson & Stephen Curtis Chapman.  As you dive in, you will hear a story woven with great expectations that keeps us starting something. This episode includes a ridiculous story about our first trip to DC to meet with the Big Boys.  Fail enough times, and you will succeed eventually. Don't try, and you've already failed. Dedicated to the memory of Jeana Beck Smith & Nancy Cale.  Huge thanks to my friend who recognized the molecule on the mystery van in our logo for her encouragement. Keep listening for clues - more seeds planted for more episodes down the line!  Follow us to be notified of new episodes and stay funky, my friends! #FunkedUpMTHFRs #MTHFR #autismawareness #MAMA Visit https://www.mthfrs.com/ for more information and check out our MEDucational merch!  Transcripts, along with links to the mentioned papers, and copies of each episode will be stored on the site.
