Welcome to MTHFR Support™
Founded by Sterling Hill, we’re dedicated to advancing the understanding of genetic polymorphisms and their impact on health through education, research, and support.
Our Story
The Beginning
Sterling Hill was a highly successful businesswoman for many years until 8 years ago when she became ill with clotting issues. She went from physician to physician, but her condition progressively deteriorated. She lost everything.
The Discovery
As traditional medical thinking was failing, she reached out to the alternative medicine community and the work of many advanced natural health practitioners that opened up her world to epigenetics. She learned the basics of her clotting issues resided in the methylation cycle. After regaining her life from treatment, Sterling realized that the medical and lay community knew little of epigenetics and nutrigenomics that held the key to solving millions of health problems.
The Mission
Sterling realized that these subjects were of vast importance to the health of everyone on the planet, often being the proverbial “stone that was left unturned” in chronic illness of any type. As a result, Sterling started MTHFRSupport.org to learn and share the knowledge of genetic polymorphisms and their effect on health. Her passion is to help educate the world of the true root cause of chronic diseases and link expert health care providers with those in need. www.MTHFRSupport.org is the cornerstone of many, many positive outcomes for those in need of help with today’s health problems.
Director & Head Practitioner — Genetics & Methylation | MTHFR Gene Health Meet Russell Browne
Russell Browne is the founder and head practitioner of MTHFR Gene Health™ and MTHFR Support™, focusing on complex health problems and the specific needs of each individual.
Russell founded MTHFR Gene Health™ and has practised natural and alternative medicine since 2014. He has worked with patients from around the world, drawing on his experience in identifying and unravelling complex health problems using advanced, evidence-informed testing and treatment.
He specialises in genetics, advanced nutrition, methylation, epigenetics and nutrigenomics — an approach built on understanding each patient’s individual strengths and weaknesses. As Russell often puts it: “If your practitioner doesn’t understand your genetics, they’re missing a large part of the picture.”
How Russell works
Russell’s approach is to listen carefully and take the time to understand each patient — their health concerns, their history and their genetics — and to use that information to build a treatment plan aimed at the underlying cause rather than a single symptom.
Working with Russell means learning more about why you’ve been unwell. Many patients say they come away understanding their own body far better than they did before, and often surprised by how much there was to learn. Russell works to understand the depth of a problem, the different ways it may be affecting you, and then monitors how you respond to natural and alternative treatments over time.
