SAMe 200mg | Bioclinic® Naturals | 30 Tablets

S-Adenosyl-L-Methionine (SAMe) has several critical physiological functions and is the common thread between three key metabolic pathways. Well-recognized as a unique methyl donor for more than 100 biological reactions, including DNA methylation. It also links methylation to polyamine synthesis (necessary for cell survival and growth) and transsulfuration, which is responsible for cysteine production, the rate-limiting factor in glutathione synthesis.^2,3 Its unique positioning within these intersecting pathways explain its role as a regulator of redox status, cellular metabolism, proliferation, and apoptosis.^4,5

Benefits

• Key factor in several key biological pathways, including methylation reactions, glutathione formation and glutathione-s-transferase activity
• Complexed with disulfate tosylate, a well-tolerated, stable and clinically tested form
• Enteric coating protects SAMe degradation from gastric acid, allowing for significantly improved intestinal absorption
• 200 mg SAMe per tablet, allows for flexible dose titration
• Sourced from the highest quality Italian Isoactive SAMe available on the market
• Isoactive SAMe uses a natural fermentation process that yields 40% higher active ingredients over synthetic variations
• 30 Delayed-Release Tablets
• NPN: 80113412

Dosage

Recommended Adult Dose: SAMe should always be taken on an empty stomach and for a minimum of 2 weeks, at which time effects should be observed.
For mood balance: 1-4 tablets 2 times per day or as directed by a health care practitioner. Consult a health care practitioner for use beyond 6 weeks.
For osteoarthritic pain: 2 tablets 3 times per day or as directed by a health care practitioner. Not to exceed 6 tablets per day. Consult a health care practitioner for use bevond 12 weeks.
Contraindications

Consult a health care practitioner if you are taking antidepressant medications. Do not use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Do not take at night as SAMe may cause anxiety, restlessness and insomnia. People with bipolar disorder (manic depressive illness) should not use SAMe unless under medical supervision. Possible side effects are: mild gastrointestinal upsets, anxiety, hyperactive muscle movement, insomnia and hypomania. When these side effects occur, they often diminish with time or resolve with lower doses or cessation of use. SAMe could theoretically worsen Parkinson’s symptoms, although this has not been observed clinically. Keep out of reach of children.

Drug Interactions

Deficiency of vitamins B6, B12, and other methyl donors may exacerbate SAMe deficiency. Theoretically, it may have additive serotonergic effects when used with antidepressants, but this has not been observed clinically, and when used simultaneously, no increase in adverse effects were noted compared to placebo.
