A Bird’s-Eye View of The Methylation Cycle & Folate Pathway

Hosted by Sofia Pistrila MSc, CNP

Join Sofia Pistrila as she introduces the topic of the Methylation Cycle and Folate Pathway. Methylation has a critical role in gene expression, energy, metabolism, detoxification, immunity, and behavioural development. It also plays life-changing functions in physical and mental health. If you are a practitioner, you may have experience with adults whose symptomatology and labs display a wide range of possible chronic disease states or children with neonatal disorders that parents agonize over correcting. You may have tried multiple strategies–to no avail. If this sounds familiar, this webinar will give you a start in understanding the intricacies of the Methylation Cycle and Folate Pathway and their application in practice for effective results.

You Will Learn:
- The basics of The Methylation Cycle: what is it, how it functions and links to chronic disease
- How is Methylation disturbed? Epigenetic blockages vs. Genetic SNPs
- That MTHFR is just a small part of the Methylation puzzle.
- The importance of The Folate Pathway: symptoms, conditions, lab testing and key genes
- Interactions with Xenobiotics.
- The importance of diet, lifestyle & nutrition
- Dangers of supplementing the wrong form of Folate or over-supplementing, especially in pregnancy

Sofia's willingness to look beyond the conventional brought her to IHN where a determination to get healthy again became a passion to heal others. After graduating she trained with pioneers in the field such as Dr. Robert Cass and Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt. She splits her schedule between her private practice, mentoring new practitioners as a Co-op Placement Partner, and teaching Nutritional Symptomatology Part 2 at IHN.
