Supports methylation for y heart, blood vessels, brain,
and s.
Methyl-Guard contains betaine, 5-MTHF, methyl-B12, and P5P to
support y methylation for cardiovascular, cognitive, and
. Methylation helps maintain y cysteine
levels.
The body's methylation process is key to maintaining a y
level of cysteine, as well as to multiple other bio
processes involving neurotransmitters, detoxification,
cardiovascular , eye , muscle , ,
and redox balance. Maintaining a normal cysteine level in the
blood has joined having normal cholesterol and triglyceride
levels as primary objectives for maintaining good cardiovascular
. Because Methyl-Guard promotes y methylation, it
helps maintain heart, blood vessel, cognitive, nerve, , and
female reproductive . Methyl-Guard was the first
tional supplement on the market to support cysteine
sm and y methylation using ents in their
active, tissue-ready forms.
Methylation – the addition of a methyl group (CH3 – one carbon
attached to three hydrogens) to another molecule – is an
essential and vital bio process in the body involved in
multiple bio pathways involving neurotransmitters,
detoxification, cardiovascular , eye , muscle ,
, and redox balance. A number of specific ents
are necessary for the process of methylation to occur normally.
Methylation is essential to help maintain a normal level of
cysteine. A deficiency in cysteine-zing cofactors
is commonly seen in the elderly, resulting in an increase in
cysteine levels with advancing age. An elevated cysteine
level associated with aging, as well as low levels of folic
and s B6 and B12, often results in the decreased
methylation of numerous substances, such as and proteins,
which in turn decreases the integrity of vascular structures and
neurons. Providing tional cofactors for cysteine
sm also provides support for a y brain.
A number of bio imbalances that raise the level of
cysteine can be addressed by supplementing with appropriate
ent cofactors. For example, folic (as
L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate), B12 (as methylcobalamin),
and betaine (trimethylglycine) help recycle cysteine to the
amino methionine, while the recycling of cysteine into
the beneficial amino s cysteine and taurine is facilitated by
pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (the active form of B6). Studies
have shown these ents help maintain a normal level of
cysteine in the blood.
Because cysteine levels can be higher in individuals in which
the enzymatic reaction that converts folic to the active
methyl donor L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) does not
function properly, Methyl-Guard contains 400 mcg of active 5-MTHF
per .
