Kirkman's
Dimethylglycine (DMG) with Folinic Acid
& Methyl B-12 Hypoallergenic Capsules
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 in the
form of Folinic Acid.
To be active in the body, folic acid has to be reduced twice
by folate reductase enzymes and is converted to tetrahydrofolate
after which a methyl group is added to the tetrahydrofolate.
In some individuals, the use of natural Folinic Acid
may be more beneficial than folic acid, because Folinic Acid
already has attached four hydrogen atoms and one methyl
group, thereby short cutting the complicated biochemical
processes that assist purine and nucletide synthesis, which
are so important in cell perception and response. For that
reason, some doctors are recommending DMG with Folinic acid
instead of the folic acid form of folate. Kirkman now offers
DMG hypoallergenic capsules containing folinic acid
and methyl B-12.
Because folic acid can sometimes mask a B-12 deficiency,
vitamin B-12 has been included as well. It is also known
that vitamin B-12 works synergistically with folic acid.
The most active form of B-12 in folate chemistry is methylcobalamin
and Kirkman utilizes this form of B-12 in this product.
This new DMG product may better assist
methionine metabolism, methylation, and folate chemistry.
