WHAT IS MTHFR? MTHFR stands for methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase. It’s an enzyme that helps your body effectively utilize folic acid—the most prevalent form of vitamin B9. It is estimated that up to 50% of North American adults have an MTHFR gene mutation, which makes it difficult or impossible to utilize folic acid. That means up to half of the people you know are affected. The most common symptom is a feeling of fatigue.
