This section of your report list genetic markers and your SNPs associated with Gut level inflammation.
Start with addressing this aspect of your wellbeing if your long term goal is to descrease inflammation, improve immune system function, detoxification, mitochondrial function, methylation and neurotransmitter balance.

High homocysteine may indicate the need for some level of methylation pathway support already at this stage. Talk to your Practitioner about strategies geared towards lowering your Homocysteine levels, if they are indeed high, during addressing of your Gastro-Intestinal health bearing in mind that aggressive and direct targetting of the folate pathway is not advisible in conditions characterised by high oxidative stress and inflammation.

Please note that many substances commonly used to address inflammation and gut health may also impact the levels of your neurotransmitters.
Your specific genotypes, listed under the NEUROTRANSMITTERS section, may influence how you react to these substances, as far as mood and cognitive processing are concern
