Pharma Nords Bio-Methionine is an essential amino acid, the basic building blocks from which proteins in the body are constructed. Methionine cannot be produced in the body, and must be obtained from the diet or via supplementation. Significant losses of methionine may occur during food processing. Methionine supplementation of vegetarian diets may be appropriate in some cases. Methionine is essential for normal metabolism and growth. In addition to its role in protein formation, methionine plays an important role in the formation of antioxidants protecting the body against free radical damage, chemical messengers responsible for normal brain function and cartilage components in joints. In addition, methionine is important for normal liver function, including the detoxification of toxic substances to which the body may have been exposed.
DIRECTIONS:The recommended intake is 1-2 tablets (500-1000mg) daily. As amino acid supplements are most effectively absorbed when they do not have to compete with amino acids from the digestion of high protein foods, this supplement is best taken at least one and a half hours before meals (first thing in the morning or at bedtime may be best).
INGREDIENTS:500mg of methionine . Suitable for vegetarians and vegans, and is sugar, yeast and gluten free.
