Jarrow Formulas T Mg 500 - 120 Tabs

TMG 500 contains Trimethylglycine (TMG) extracted from sugar beets. TMG is also known as anhydrous betaine. TMG is a highly effective donor of methyl groups and is a powerful reducer of homocysteine to biologically safe methionine. Homocysteine is a toxic transient metabolite of methionine and is a significant heart risk factor. Homocysteine is reduced back to biologically safe methionine by methyl groups donated by TMG and enzymes that require Folic Acid, B12 and methyl groups or back to cysteine by B6. Methylation is inhibited by inadequately functioning key enzymes, excessive protein and fat intake, poor diet, inadequate intake of methyl groups, coffee, alcohol or by smoking.

In a healthy body, 'methylation' happens over a billion times a second. This is important for converting the dangerous amino acid, homocysteine, into the body's most important anti-ageing and detoxifying antioxidant; gluathione. Keeping homocysteine at a healthy low level is also important for keeping our risk of heart disease, stroke and Alzheimer's a low as possible. In addition, methyl groups are added and subtracted to our DNA. When not enough methylation is going on, our DNA cannot properly repair itself, which puts us at higher risk from degenerative diseases. Methylation also helps the body convert homocysteine into an important biochemical called SAMe, which helps maintain good mood and flexible joints.

TMG 500
Reduces Homocysteine & Protects DNA Homocysteine is increasingly being recognised as an important risk factor for a number of common medical conditions. There is high academic and public interest in this unique biological marker emphasising the need for regular testing and monitoring of homocysteine levels within the blood. Elevated levels of homocysteine have been shown to be associated with: 

• Increased risk of coronary heart disease
• Greater chance of suffering a stroke
• Higher likelihood of developing dementia later on in life.
