SAMe (s-adenosyl-l-methionine – 60 caps) by Orthomolecular

CLINICAL APPLICATIONS Provides Mood Support Supports Musculoskeletal Health Supports Liver Health OVERVIEW S-Adenosylmethionine (SAMe) is the active methyl form of the amino acid methionine. SAMe is necessary for an array of biochemical pathways, including neurotransmitter synthesis, metabolism of homocysteine, and detoxification. As a donator of methyl groups, SAMe supports glutathione production, liver health, musculoskeletal and joint comfort, and a positive mood. Suggested Use: 1-2 capsules two times per day or as recommended by your health care professional. INGREDIENT BENEFITS SAMe SAMe is a principle methyl donor for biochemical reactions throughout the body. This methyl transfer, is critical to reactions involving proteins, phospholipids, DNA, RNA, creatine, hormones, development of cell membranes, degradation of histamine, and formation of norepinephrine and dopamine. Folate Folate is a water-soluble member of the B-complex vitamins that is critical for maintaining optimal methylation pathways. Malabsorption and genetic defects in the enzyme 5-methyltetrahydrofolate reductase (5-MTHFR) can result in an impaired ability to activate folic acid. Folic acid supports the trans-methylation pathway, which metabolizes homocysteine into cysteine. Increases in oxidative stress may shift homocysteine metabolism towards trans-sulfuration to increase hepatic production of reduced glutathione.       *This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, or cure any illness or disease.
