The “Gold Standard” to decrease the elevated homocysteine levels is to use the combination Folate+B12+B6.. Presuming Folate may be cancerogenic (esp. Prostate cancer..), B6 is not recommended due to Ldopa interference .., than what remains as the main weapon against increased levels of homocysteine, only B12..??
How about if Folic acid may alternatively be administered as 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, is it safe..?? .Advises will be much appreciated..

Synbiotics lower homocysteine, while raising glutathione! If that isn't enough, synbiotics lower inflammatory mediators known to be overactive in PD while lowering oxidative stress both of which are helpful for PWPs! If that isn't enough, synbiotics help to repair leaky gut while increasing insulin sensitivity of which both processes are anti inflammatory. If that isn't enough, synbiotics are neuro protective while also improving thiamine and vitamin D status. If that isn't enough, synbiotics lower high sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) while reducing or eliminating constipation! If that isn't enough, synbiotics can raise dopamine levels while reducing depression and anxiety!
Holy crap, where can I get these synbiotics?😁😁😁
I can go on, but I discussed most of this and more here:
I believe Gio has found a good one and possibly Kia. But there are many on line or you can go the fermented food route which are generally fairly broad spectrum and in large numbers of bacteria.
5mthf would be preferable source of folate. Methyl b12 also preferred b12. B6, b2 choline or trimethylglycine helpful. Also creatine and phosphatidyl choline r 2 major uses for methyl groups so taking them can support lower hcy. Plus we lose about 2 grams of creatine daily. Athletes lose more.
