Description
Kirkman's
Dimethylglycine (DMG) Liquid
Some
individuals can not swallow tablets or capsules. Kirkman
has therefore formulated a liquid DMG product. Kirkman's
DMG liquid has a pleasant raspberry flavor and is especially
easy to use with small children. As with all Kirkman
products, the DMG liquid is casein and 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.
