TMG (TRIMETHYLGLYCINE) FROM NOW FOODS.Methylation is a normal biological process that occurs in healthy human bodies every minute of every day. Methylation is an important step in the conversion of nomocysteine, a damaging amino acid, into the biologically safe and beneficial amino acid, methionine. In addition, methylation is required for DNA repair, as well as for the production of SAMe, which helps maintain healthy joint tissue. Methylation can be inhibited by poor or inadequate diet and unhealthy lifestyle practices. TMG (Trimethylglycine) has been shown to be a safe and effective methyl donor for the facilitation of methylation processes. TMG supplementation has been shown in clinical and non-clinical studies to support a healthy homocysteine level, which in turn supports healthy cardiovascular function. [TABLET]

Homocysteine
Homocysteine, a byproduct of different natural functions in your body is thought to be an even bigger risk factor for heart attacks than cholesterol. High Homocysteine levels have been linked to an increased risk of premature heart disease and stroke. Homocysteine is amino acid, mainly produced form eating animal products. Ideally this substance is converted into other non-threatening
amino acids
by the body. However, with age; poor diet; smoking and other lifestyle factors, this conversion can become impeded and eventually lead to a dangerously high accumulation of Homocysteine in the blood.
Studies indicate that the problem of high Homocysteine levels is strongly influenced by diet-- specifically, low blood levels of vitamins B-6, B-12, and
folic acid. These vitamins convert Homocysteine into other harmless
amino acids. Supplementing with these vitamins has shown a decrease in Homocysteine concentrations and cardiovascular disease risk.
Heart Health
The cardiovascular system consists of the heart and approximately 60 thousand miles of blood vessels, called arteries and veins. The heart pumps blood around the body. The vessels nourish cells by transporting nutrients and waste products, through the blood, around the body.
Any interruption in blood supply, for example a
heart attack
or stroke, causes tissue death so the maintenance of a healthy cardiovascular system is essential.
Most cardiovascular disease occurs due to lifestyle factors such as:
1. Obesity, poor nutrition, and medication usage.
2. Free radical damage due to environmental toxins or smoking.
3. Stress or poor emotional health.
4. Lack of exercise.
Support A Healthy Heart By:
-Exercising regularly, at least 3-4 times a week.
-Maintaining a healthy body weight.
-Eating less saturated fat and avoiding trans fats.
-Consuming healthy fats such
omega 3
& 6 essential fatty acids.
-Eating a variety of fresh, natural, nutrient dense fruits and vegetables.
-Ensuring fibre consumption is between 25-35 grams a day, try flax or
psyllium
powder.
-Cooking with fresh herbs and spices such as garlic, ginger and
cayenne.
-Supplementing with
antioxidants
such as
CoQ10
to increase circulation and improve heart functions.
-Avoiding processed, packaged and refined foods.
-Using stress relieving techniques such as mediation, yoga or tai chi.
-Not smoking and limiting your exposure to occupational toxins.
-Seeing you physician or natural health care practitioner regularly
