Description
Kirkman's
Trimethylglycine (TMG) with folinic
& Methyl B-12 Hypoallergenic Capsules
Folic acid intake and levels in the body must be adequate
for TMG to work biochemically. For this reason, some physicians
recommend a TMG supplement containing folic acid in the
form of Folinic.
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
may be more beneficial than folic acid, because folinic
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 TMG with folinic
instead of the folic acid form of folate. Kirkman now offers
TMG hypoallergenic capsules containing folinic
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 TMG product may better assist methionine metabolism,
methylation, and folate chemistry.
