To suppress brain histamine levels, carbs in the evening, with low protein and relatively low fat, is best. From among protein, collagen is best at night for the glycine. Watch …
Short Answer: When we have too many methyl groups, MTHFR is shut off and methylfolate is not produced. Therefore, methylfolate acts as a signal that we do not have enough methyl groups, and shuts off the glycine buffer system, which is only active when we have too many methyl groups.
