So many kids across the world are given methyl folate and then their ADHD symptoms and aggression get a million times worse and they are punished for behaviors outside of their control.
If the world listens to one thing that I say it should be that should never give your child methylfolate until you understand their COMT status ‼️
COMT is an enzyme that breaks down dopamine, norepinephrine and adrenaline. Taking methyl folate makes this enzyme bottleneck and slows the process down even more… It runs the show for panic attacks, OCD, aggression, ruminating thoughts and so many patterns of mental dysregulation. If your child has intermediate or slow COMT and takes methyl folate it can be like pouring gasoline on a fire.
Sadly the supplement industry is not designed for this variant and people think that MTHFR alone means that methyl folate is appropriate which could not be further from the truth! It is much more nuanced than 1+ 1 = 2. In fact there is only one brand that I know that offers MTHFR compliant and methyl free B vitamins and it’s the Seeking Health brand.

If your functional medicine provider is urging you to take methyl folate without testing COMT please advocate for yourself and don’t fall for the gimmick that they are herxing or detoxing when in fact they are going through a full body crisis and being misdiagnosed.
