In reply to Under/Overmethylation,Pyroluria + Bipolar Disorder, posted by MoparFan91 on May 8, 2009, at 13:24:58
I am diagnosed Bipolar/Schizophrenia and I believe I have pyroluria because I feel more stable on B6 and zinc picolinate. I don't do well on folic acid or B12. In addition, however, I also need vitamins E and C, as well as fish and borage oils. I couldn't tell you if I was over or under-methylated. It's too confusing. But pyroluria, yes, that might be a possibility due to my positive reaction to zinc and P5P (B6). One definite benefit I've noticed from using P5P is that it tends to quell my paranoia, so I believe I definitely need it everyday. Let me note that zinc picolinate is the best form of zinc I've ever used, for anyone out there wishing to try zinc in their regimen.
