SAMe Vegetable Capsules

What is SAMe?

SAMe (S-adenosylmethionine), a compound native to the body, is a component of many biochemical reactions, including those that affect brain biochemistry and joint health. SAMe is critical for the synthesis of neurotransmitters, is important for energy production in the brain, contributes to the maintenance of healthy cell membrane function, and influences cartilage metabolism.

SAMe can support with the following:

Supports joint health and mobility

SAMe’s ‘active sulphur’ group supports collagen and proteoglycan
production, essential components of connective tissue. These nutrients
surround the joint and serve to act as a cushion in the cartilage
enhancing mobility and movement and promoting joint comfort.

Supports mood and cognitive health

SAMe is essential for the metabolism of major brain neurotransmitters,
such as dopamine, serotonin and norepinephrine.  SAMe may also
upregulate the production of phosphatidylcholine, supporting cognitive
function.

Supports liver and intestines

The liver makes most of the body’s SAMe and relies on SAMe for its
structural and functional integrity. SAMe enhances liver synthesis of
glutathione an important antioxidant. The liver’s SAMe reserves are
depleted by alcohol and toxins.  Studies show SAMe may protect liver
injury caused by a number of toxins.

Support for energy production

SAMe is required by the mitochondria, in the cells, to produce CoQ10,
alpha lipoic acid and other nutrients crucial for energy production
