Homocysteine is an amino acid, which is produced out of methionine. It is not ingested by nutrition. Homocysteine is rapidly degraded to cysteine when vitamin B6, folic acid and vitamin B12 are sufficiently available. Increased levels of homocysteine will damage heart and blood vessels. Meanwhile it is an established risk marker for cardiovascular disease. US studies demonstrate that 40% of heart attacks are caused by increased homocysteine levels. Also the risk for stroke is increased by elevated homocysteine concentrations in plasma. A participation of homocysteine in Alzheimer and Parkinson diseases are under discussion.
