1) What are your thoughts about the study/findings?
I think people should consider incorporating vitamin B group vitamins and folic acid foods in their diet to shun the dangers caused by their deficiencies.
2) Why does not getting enough folate and B group vitamins (B12, B6, B3) potentially lead to “chromosomal ruptures, DNA hypomethylation, and increased sensitivity to mutagens” and how is that connected to cancer?
Folate is vital for protection against hypomethylation and chromosome damage. But the process is altered with reduced vitamin B 12 concentration, which lowers methionine synthase activity and limits S-adenosyl methionine concentration resulting in decreased DNA methylation and folate becomes unavailable for chromosomes conversion.
3) How can people make sure that they’re getting enough folate and vitamin B group vitamins (B12, B6, B3) in their diet?
I recommend loading their diets with
- Pork
- Poultry
- Peanuts
- Milk
- Oats
- Broccoli
- Liver
- Eggs
4) Is there anything else you’d like to add? Thank you!
I usually advise my clients, especially the young adults and pregnant mothers to eat foods with folate and Vitamin B for proper growth. Moreover, if your system is problematic in metabolizing and absorbing vitamins, it would help taking dietary consumptions beyond the normal RDA.
