Physician Notes

Target homocysteine <7. Mandatory with MOTS-c use (depletes folate cycle). MTHFR variants (C677T, A1298C) are common and impair folate metabolism. Always use methylated forms, not folic acid.

FDA Status:Available OTC and via prescription compounding.

Monitoring

  • Homocysteine q3-6mo (target <7)
  • B12 levels
  • Folate levels
  • MMA if B12 deficiency suspected
