What is Homocysteine?

An inadequate intake of B vitamins can lead to elevated Homocysteine levels. Homocysteine is a non-protein alpha-amino acid found in blood. A high level of Homocysteine has been linked to cardiovascular disease. Elevated plasma Homocysteine is associated with an increased risk of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). Increased Homocysteine levels can cause miscarriage and/or preeclampsia in pregnant women, and can lead to birth defects.

Methionine and Cysteine are essential amino acids for human body. Homocysteine can be recycled into methionine or converted into cysteine with the aid of B-vitamins (B6, B12 and folic acid). There is no treatment for elevated Homocysteine apart from efforts to lower your levels by increasing your intake of B vitamins.
