Nathan, You are one funny dude, you are taking B6 and you expect your blood levels to be normal? Stop testing your serum , it is not accurate and not relevant. Take what I told you to take. And yes you will feel bad on it for a while.
I just want to give my Congratulations to all those who have helped with the nord efforts on pois center. I dont share some people's extreme optimism with regards to this study, but nevertheless i think every one of us supports research and we should be very proud of this pretty major accomplishment together.

I think these genes control transport and biosynthesis of 1,25(OH)_2D, while VDR is downstream. See this link on 1,25(OH)_2D biosynthesis:http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2675652/figure/fig1/According to this site: http://www.heartfixer.com/AMRI-Nutrigenomics.htm#VDR Taq: Vitamin D Receptor Taq AbnormalityVDR Taq + together with COMT(-/-) causes low dopamine in general, and needs methyl donors..I recently read some articles questioning some of Dr.Amy's claims:http://web.mit.edu/london/www/cbs.htmlthat suggestsUrinary ammonia test is unreliableUrinary taurine test is unreliableglutathione deficiency may be caused by SOD1/2/3 mutation.Kurtosis, have you done any blood test on glutathione? I wonder if there is a way to directly measure it. Thanks!I am rethinking what I have learned so far, A1298C mutation seems quite pronounced. VDR bsm and taq (++) seems to be not very rare in general population.

I'm not the man for the job, but I think we should have a moderator who can perform their duties objectively and fairly. I don't feel that all the posters know how to be objective and fair, and there should be oversight. I want to talk about science and nakedscientist.com, and not things that are off that theme.Is there someone who is interested in being a mod? I'd help vouch for you if you are up for it!
