TMG or Trimethylglycine For Detoxification

Title Tag: TMG To Support Detoxification.

Meta Description: 

Discover how TMG supports detoxification or removal of harmful substances from the body. Learn proper dosages and benefits... Support your well-being naturally! 

TMG or Trimethylglycine (Betaine Anhydrous):

Action: 

TMG is a methyl donor, meaning it can donate a methyl group (CH3) to other molecules in the body. This process, called methylation, is crucial for many biochemical reactions, including detoxification, liver function, homocysteine regulation, and DNA synthesis. 

In the context of toxic metal removal, TMG supports the liver's detoxification pathways, helping to convert toxic metals into less harmful forms that can be more easily eliminated. 

It also helps in the production of SAMe (S-Adenosylmethionine), which is involved in various metabolic processes.

Benefits:

• Detoxification: Supports liver function and the removal of toxins, including heavy metals.
• Homocysteine Regulation: Helps lower homocysteine levels, an amino acid linked to an increased risk of heart disease.
• Liver Health: May improve liver function and protect against fatty liver disease.
• Athletic Performance: Some studies suggest TMG may enhance athletic performance and muscle strength.

Side Effects: 

TMG is generally well-tolerated, but some potential side effects include:

• Gastrointestinal issues: Nausea, diarrhea, or stomach upset.
• Body odor: A fishy body odor in some individuals due to the production of trimethylamine.
• Interactions with medications: Consult with a healthcare professional if taking medications, especially those for blood pressure or heart conditions.

Dosage: 

Women can take 1000 mg daily. Men can take up to 3000 mg daily. Children over about age 6 can take a smaller amount under supervision. Children age 6 or younger do not usually need TMG.

Reference

NB: I have used TMG with good results. One individual with a diagnosis of COPD expreienced full relief in a week,

Alternatively, I regularly use Activated Charcoal with very good results as it is more readily available.
