Hi Sir, Homocysteine is linked to increased risk of premature coronary artery disease, stroke and thromboelism. Moreover, Alzheimer disease, osteoporosis, venous thrombosis, schizophrenia, cognitive deficiency and pregnancy complications also elevate homocysteine levels. Is this report is fine?

High levels of it are linked to early development of heart disease. In fact, a high level of homocysteine is a risk factor for heart disease. It's associated with low levels of vitamins B6, B12, and folate, as well as renal disease.Homocysteine is a naturally occurring amino acid produced as part of the body's methylation process. The level of homocysteine in the plasma is increasingly being recognised as a risk factor for disease and seen as a predictor of potential health problems such as cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer's. To lower homocysteine levels, it is recommended to increasing your intake of B vitamins, particularly folate, and moderating stress. The richest food sources of folate (the form of folic acid found in food) are green vegetables, orange juice and beans.

It seems that you are very anxious and stressed about years health. Along with consultation with a qualified physician. You need to engage yourself in some form of yoga or relaxation to take care of years stress. U should also share y issues with close friends and pursue years hobbies to buildup years self esteem. Maybe gardening, writing, painting, music etc.
