SAMe (S-adenosyl-L-methionine), is naturally occurring and manufactured within the body. SAMe has been found to be effective in treatment of depression, liver dysfunction, arthritis, fibromyalgia and migraine headaches. SAMe is involved in over 40 biochemical reactions in the body.
SAMe is essential for the production of glutathione, a powerful antioxidant that protects the body from the damaging effects of free radicals. SAMe improves the binding of neurotransmitters to their receptors sites in the brain. SAMe has been used in Europe in the treatment of cirrhosis and damage caused by alcohol and has been shown to relieve all forms of depression. Several studies have shown that SAMe can be as effective as pharmaceutical antidepressants.
A summary of SAMe benefits include: • Promotes healthy joint function and comfort. • Elevates mood and emotional well-being. • Helps detoxify the liver through a process called methylation. • Pharmaceutical grade, enteric coated, and blister-packed.
