leave a comment »

Homocysteine is a amino acid in the Blood.

The higher the levels of homocysteine in your blood, more the chance of suffering from coronary heart disease and stoke.

Levels of homocysteine in your blood are kept low by Vit B6,  B12 and Folic acid. So incase your levels of these 3 are reduced and the homocysteine levels will increase.

So please keep a check on you intake of above 3 vitamins , which you can get enough in green leafy vegetables  or even as tablet medications.
