What are Healthy Homocysteine levels?
The American Heart Association has indicated a reasonable goal should be less than 10 micromoles per liter. Other research suggests that optimal Homocysteine levels should be less than 6 micromoles per liter, especially in high risk individuals. Most scientists agree that almost no one has optimum levels of many key nutrients and that a multivitamin + mineral supplement fills many such gaps. As a bonus, a high dose multi vitamin multi mineral is the only therapy to lower homocysteine, a ‘natural blood-toxin’ we all have and that is now linked to about 100 different diseases. Most quick acting single nutrient deficiency diseases like scurvy, beriberi and others were wiped out by vitamin & minerals fortification in our food. This leaves the long-term multiple nutrient deficiencies.
