Methylation

Methylation is a process that occurs in our cells and involves the addition of a small chemical group called a methyl group to specific regions of our DNA or other molecules within our cells. This process plays a crucial role in regulating gene expression, which determines how our genes are activated or silenced.

The methylation cycle is crucial for overall physical and mental functioning. It supports various bodily functions, including cardiovascular and immune system activity, energy production, heavy-metal detox, and hormone balance. Additionally, methylation is necessary for controlling retroviral elements, gene expression, and promoting longevity through varying influences on gene activity based on genomic sequence.
