📌 START HERE — Read This First
You got an MTHFR result. Then what? For most people, that moment goes one of two ways. Your doctor glanced at it and said, "It's not clinically significant." Or you fell down a rabbit hole of contradictory websites, Facebook groups, and supplement protocols that left you more confused than when you started. Neither of those should happen. That's exactly why this community exists. I'm Jean-Marc — integrative physician, 25 years in clinical practice, and probably the only doctor you'll meet who gets genuinely excited about methylation genetics. I created The Methylation Hub because the gap between what the science tells us and what patients actually receive is one of the most unnecessary failures in modern medicine. You deserve better than a shrug or a supplement shopping list. This is what you'll find here Clinical depth without the jargon. Evidence-based answers to the questions your GP didn't have time for. A community of people who understand what it means to feel like your biology has been working against you — and are figuring it out together. Every Thursday at 8 pm UK time, I host a live Q&A. Bring your labs, your questions, your confusion. Nothing is too basic, and nothing is too complex. Sessions are recorded if you can't attend live. The Classroom will have structured modules on methylation fundamentals, supplement protocols, and fertility, with more added regularly. One thing before you do anything else Go to the Introductions category and answer this single question: What is your MTHFR variant, and what is the one question you most want answered? That's it. One question. I read every introduction personally and respond to each one. You're not joining a database. You're joining a conversation that could genuinely change how you understand your own health. Welcome. Jean-Marc Sobczyk, MD - The Methylation Doctor

25 years of practice. 3 years of archives. 135 answers. Free.
I have been explaining the same things to patients for 25 years and posting about them for 3. It was scattered across hundreds of posts, and nobody could find anything, including me. So I rebuilt it. **The Archive** is 135 clinical explainers on methylation and MTHFR, organised by the question you are asking. Eleven modules, going up in the classroom one at a time, free: MTHFR Foundations · Reading Your Labs · COMT and Your Brain Chemistry · Homocysteine · B12 · Gut and Absorption · Why Supplements Backfire · Ageing and Biological Age · Environmental Drivers · Fertility and Pregnancy · Methylation and Neurodevelopment Every entry answers one question: the mechanism, what I see in clinic, and what it does not mean. Every claim is sourced and graded A to D, so you can tell a trial result from a good theory. Modules 1 and 2 are live. Search the index and start wherever your question is.

The Clinician MTHFR Guide is ready now!
Here is a preview of the Handbook ⬇️ What's in this course The TRACE Method: Practical Methylation for MTHFR Seven modules, built around the same five-stage sequence I use with patients at Hooke London. Nothing here is theory; you have to translate it into action yourself. Each module ends where the next one starts. Module 0: Welcome & Foundations What MTHFR actually is, and why a variant is a ceiling, not a diagnosis. Start here even if you've read about MTHFR before; this reframes most of what's online. Module 1: Test Which markers matter, which ones don't, and why a genotype alone tells you almost nothing without the biochemistry around it. Module 2: Restore The foundational cofactors and pathway support most protocols skip. Why starting here, ahead of high-dose methylfolate, is what separates a result from a reaction. Module 3: Address The downstream systems methylation touches that most guides never mention. Detoxification. Neurotransmitter synthesis. Hormone clearance. Module 4: Correct How to titrate and adjust once you know your starting point, including why "more" is usually the wrong instinct with methyl donors. Module 5: Enable What keeps the gains, and how to tell whether you've moved the needle or you're just guessing. Bonus Module: Synthesis & Clinical Judgement Unlocks once Modules 1 through 5 are complete. Putting the five stages together into one working picture, the same judgement call I make in clinic. The modules are sequenced on purpose. Module 4 won't unlock until Modules 2 and 3 are done, the same way I wouldn't move a patient to Correct before Restore and Address have done their work. Also included: - The TRACE Roadmap, a printable one-page reference for all five stages - A glossary covering every term used in the course, in plain language - A Resources & References pack, the blood panel to request and the evidence behind each stage Who wrote this Dr Jean-Marc Sobczyk is a GMC-registered integrative and longevity medicine physician with 25 years of clinical experience across France, Switzerland, Beverly Hills and the UK. He practises at Hooke London, where methylation genetics sits at the centre of his clinical work.

"Connecting the dots: Migraines, cognitive decline, and MTHFR"
Hello, thank you for sharing information about this topic. In Spain, people have no idea that this genetic mutation exists and that it can affect you so much in the long run. Doctors never test your homocysteine levels, and if you finally manage to convince one to order it in your bloodwork, they don't know what to do with the results afterwards. It’s unbelievable!! I believe in preventive medicine... I've suffered from migraines since I was 20, and my mother was diagnosed with cognitive decline 10 years ago. Ever since then, my search for answers began... and in the end, I had to diagnose the genetic mutation myself, researching and studying on my own. That's how I found you on Instagram and later on Skool. I have finally managed to get a hematologist to order the genetic test; I had it done yesterday, Tuesday, and I will have the results soon. I am already supplementing and managed to bring my homocysteine down from 53 to 30... but I still have a way to go. Thank you for all the valuable content you provide on this blog. Best regards.
👋 Introduce Yourself — Tell Us Who You Are
This is the first thing I'd love you to do when you join. Reply below and tell us: 1. Your variant: C677T, A1298C, compound heterozygous, or not yet tested? 2. What brought you here: what's your biggest question or health concern right now? 3. One thing you're hoping to get from this community 4. Every reply gets a personal response from me. This is not a number on a member's list; you are a person with a real health story, and it matters. I'll go first 👇 As a physician, I became interested in methylation after observing several patients who did not improve with standard protocols. I saw a gap in how I cared for patients. This prompted me to study genomics and nutrigenomics, with a focus on MTHFR and how minor genetic variations affect health. As I learned about MTHFR's clinical relevance, similarities between my patients, my personal medical history, and the condition led me to undergo genetic testing. I found that I am heterozygous for the MTHFR 1298 T>C variant. This underscored the importance of genetics in clinical practice and changed the way I support patients, especially those who do not respond to standard protocols. I now ensure my diet includes ample folate-rich foods and, as needed, supplements. After 25 years in practice, I am convinced that identifying key genetic factors is essential for effective patient care, helping me focus on meaningful interventions and avoid unnecessary complexity.
