NOW Foods L-Methionine, 500mg - 100 caps

NOW Foods L-Methionine is a high-quality essential amino acid supplement that delivers 1000 mg of L-methionine and 20 mg of vitamin B6 (from pyridoxine HCl) per serving of 2 veg capsules. The bottle contains 100 veg capsules, providing 50 servings.

Methionine is an essential amino acid that the body cannot manufacture itself — it must be obtained from food or supplementation. It is also one of the few sulfur-containing amino acids and plays a key role in the synthesis of glutathione, one of the body's primary antioxidants, and supports the body's natural detoxification processes. Methionine can also be converted in the body into SAMe (S-adenosyl methionine), a compound important for joint health and tissue metabolism.

The product additionally contains vitamin B6, which contributes to normal amino acid metabolism and supports the efficient use of methionine in the body. Vitamin B6 also plays a role in normal homocysteine metabolism, which is closely linked to methionine metabolism.
