Kirkman: DMG w/Folic Acid & B12 Hypoallergenic Capsules 100 ct
Hypoallergenic DMG Capsules with Folic Acid and Vitamin B-12
Folic acid intake and levels in the body must be adequate for DMG to work biochemically. For this reason, some physicians recommend a DMG supplement containing folic acid. Kirkman has such a product containing folic acid. Because folic acid can sometimes mask a B-12 deficiency, vitamin B-12 has been included as well.
Each Kirkman DMG capsule contains 125 mg of DMG from DMG hydrochloride with 400 mcg. of folic acid and 6 mcg. of Vitamin B-12. The product is formulated to be:
Hypoallergenic
Casein & Gluten Free
Dimethylglycine (DMG) is a non-protein amino acid present in plant and animal cells. The chemical structure of DMG is actually a glycine molecule holding onto two methyl groups, so DMG is considered a "methyl donor". In the body, with the help of a coenzyme of riboflavin, DMG supplies methyl groups which attach to folic acid to form methylene tetrahydrofolate, an important component of many biochemical processes in the body including cellular perception and response. It is also involved in maintaining healthy homocysteine levels.
