SAMe

Enhanced-stability SAMe to promote healthy mood balance and osteoarthritic joint comfort

SAMe (S-adenosylmethionine) is a compound present in all living cells. It functions as a donor of methyl groups in over 100 different reactions and contributes to the synthesis, activation and/or metabolism of hormones, neurotransmitters, nucleic acids, phospholipids, and proteins. Methyl groups act as a signal throughout the body, regulating genetic expression and cellular function. SAMe also promotes healthy mood balance, as indicated in over 40 clinical studies. In a meta-analysis involving 25 controlled trials and 791 individuals, SAMe offered statistically significant benefits for positive mood, believed to be due to its role in neurotransmitter monoamine synthesis and function, including dopamine and serotonin. It also promotes healthy protein turnover and maintains healthy phospholipid methylation to foster phosphatidylcholine production and cellular membrane integrity and fluidity. Studies suggest it enhances joint flexibility and comfort in individuals with osteoarthritis as well. In a meta-analysis involving 11 studies, SAMe offered statistically significant advantages for joint function. It is believed to relieve osteoarthritis pain by aiding proteoglycan synthesis, as well as reinforcing and safeguarding the proteoglycans.
