Doctors Best - SAM-e 200mg Tablets 60

SAM-e is a compound the body makes for itself from the amino acid methionine, and it is one of the most important methyl donors in the central nervous system. Methylation underpins the proper working of a number of organ systems, and SAM-e takes part in biochemical reactions in the liver, the joints and the brain, as well as in the making of key neurotransmitters and hormones. These tablets are enteric coated so they survive stomach acid and reach the intestine.

Benefits

• Supports enhanced mood and cognitive health
• Essential for healthy metabolism of the major brain transmitters serotonin and norepinephrine
• Helps promote joint comfort and mobility
• Supports liver health and detoxification
• Supports energy production
• Enteric coated for optimum stability and potency

Joints. The active sulphur group in SAM-e supports the production of collagen and proteoglycans, the components of connective tissue that surround a joint and cushion the cartilage.

Mood and cognition. SAM-e is needed for the metabolism of dopamine, serotonin and norepinephrine, and may also raise the production of phosphatidylcholine, which supports cognitive function.

Liver. The liver makes most of the body's SAM-e and depends on it for its structural and functional integrity. SAM-e assists the liver's synthesis of glutathione, an important antioxidant, and the liver's SAM-e reserves are depleted by alcohol and toxins.

Energy. The mitochondria require SAM-e to produce CoQ10, alpha lipoic acid and other nutrients that energy production depends on.
