Hormones on a Methylation Leash: Calming the Endocrine Storm

Methylation is the biochemical maestro orchestrating a symphony of processes in the body, from gene expression to hormonal harmony. This subtle yet powerful mechanism involves adding methyl groups—tiny chemical tags—to molecules, influencing how genes behave and how hormones function. It’s a linchpin for keeping estrogens, progesterone, adrenaline, histamine, thyroid hormones, testosterone, and DHEA in check. Without proper methylation, these hormones can veer off script, leading to a cascade of physiological chaos.

The Best Kept Optimal Health Secret

Methylation
Gary shares his journey from life insurance risk analysis to launching a wellness franchise, using biomarkers and genetics to tackle disease causes. He highlights the MTHFR gene mutation, impacting up to 44% of people, which hinders methylfolate production and can cause anxiety and gut issues. He also links the COMT mutation to high blood pressure and estrogen imbalance, showing how nutrient deficiencies drive common health problems and how supplements can help. A quick dive into better health through genetics and nutrition.

Your Cells Are Starving for Creatine

"Creatine is responsible for spreading the impact of mitochondrial ATP production into the general area of the cell known as the cytosol, and into every organelle outside the mitochondria.


While it is more important in cells with high ATP requirements, variable ATP requirements, and long distances between mitochondria and the source of ATP utilization, it is still incredibly important in every cell."


Your Cells Are Starving for Creatine If you're not eating this type of diet you need a supplement. Chris Masterjohn, PhD
     

Discussion: Insulin and glucose dysregulation is pervasive. High insulin affects other hormones such as estrogen, testosterone, progesterone and thyroid. Learn about the interrelationships and the keys to managing insulin.

     

Appointments with The Wellness By Design Project typically begin with Carol getting to know you, and a chance for you to get to know Carol!

Every initial visit with the Carol begins with a consultation, in order to accurately understand your issues. If Carol feels that additional testing or labs are necessary she will get those ordered.


At the follow-up appointment, we will discuss your current condition and your goals, take a look at the overall results, and provide you with a plan to achieve your goal. Together, we will come up with a treatment plan specifically for you, and answer any questions you might have regarding your health care.
